[Box Backup] Housekeeping still crashing

[David Ward]

Good point Dave.

I have noticed over the years with some executables that hang, when I 
run them prefixed with strace, they work. Particularly network 
applications. No science in my response here, but my theory is the added 
delay of strace helps the timing of execution. Perhaps someone knows better.
