The fact that correct error is given is tested in backup_errors test. Inside 
backup test, I only set-up a trap for a faulty server as it was before this patch.

This breaks my heart because I included this test scenario in expectation of 
your request for something along these lines ;) But if you don't see the point 
of such test, then I'm fine with leaving backup test unchanged and using only 
the backup_errors test. Do you concur?
