How to repeat:
Branch mysql-5.1-meb.
Build MySQL.
Branch meb-3.5.next (current revno: 228, but 227 shows the same problem).
Build meb-ibbackup and meb-innobackup-c.
export IBBACKUP and INNOBACKUP.
Run MTR --suite=meb in mysql-5.1-meb.

Suggested fix:
Do not create ibbackup_export_variables.txt in datadir,
or remove it before list_files,
or exclude it from copy_back if it is created in backup_dir.

This file is created by the ibbackup program.

The checkin into mysql-5.1-meb on 2010-09-24 has fixed this test issue.
