misterious vanishing files /root/tmp.BNM19470

[Rainer Traut]

Hi,

from time to time my rsync backup gives a different return value other 
than 0.

Here is the log:
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.BNM19470"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.BsI19474"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.FHo19468"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.NCY19482"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.WIe19484"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.cMU19476"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.hSb19472"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.uEe19480"
file has vanished: "/root/tmp.xmp19478"
rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred 
(code 24) at main.c(1506) [generator=3.0.5]


I really have no idea where they can come from other than rsync himself.
Is this by any chance possible?
