I don't have any answers, but I'm curious about the size of the
filesystem in question. I wonder if it's too large for the 32 bit
Networker app to handle. As a preliminary test to see how serious this
may be you might want to try and find all files that have been created
in this filesystem since this message first appeared and then see if
those files show up in the backup and do a test restore on some of them.
