rsbackup --retire --verbose HOST:VOLUME showed that it invokes rm for backups going back years that have long since been deleted. This may reflect a database expiration issue rather than a bug in the retire code as such.
As far as I can tell this is harmless, but it has poor nonfunctionals.

This turns out to be both of the possible bugs related to this behavior.

  1. The expiry of records of pruned backups wasn't happening.
  2. Volume retiry wasn't excluding pruned backups.
