Description:
MEB, Windows XP, not creating ibbackup_export_variables.txt and backup fails.  

Command to launch mysqlbackup.exe:
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5>mysqlbackup --user=root my.ini .

However, in destination backup directory, the my-backup.cnf is created

I see similar bug: 

Output:
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5>mysqlbackup --user=root my.ini .
mysqlbackup: Starting mysqlbackup with following arguments:
mysqlbackup --user=root my.ini .
mysqlbackup: The unique backup id generated for the current backup operation is
12883010601305928

mysqlbackup: IMPORTANT: Please check that backup run completes successfully.
            At the end of a successful 'backup' run mysqlbackup
            prints "mysqlbackup completed OK!".

mysqlbackup: Created backup directory '.\2010-10-28_15-24-20'

mysqlbackup: Warning: Backup Logging: The fields start_lsn, incremental_base_lsn

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5>mysqlbackup --user=root my.ini .

How to repeat:
Command to launch mysqlbackup.exe:
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5>mysqlbackup --user=root my.ini .

I've also tried launching backup in a different directory and with a full destination location.
