...a solution for this case.

The general solution would be to make BACKUP less sensitive to the RMS 
metadata, and/or to move savesets to a data format that better survives 
transfers.

In short, how long must folks run into this case — and ask the question 
anew — before this bug in BACKUP gets fixed?

Yes, BACKUP /REPAIR and zip "-V" are helpful adjuncts, as are the 
various other tools referenced.

But the implementation of BACKUP here is... broken.   Or we wouldn't 
still be having this discussion.  Again.
