How to get Transfer-Counts during backup?

Hi,

I would like to get actual transfercounts from BackupPC_dump during an 
active running backup.
I establish a signal handler in BackupPC_dump:

$SIG{IO} = \&write_status;
sub write_status
{
    my $sigName = shift;
    my $client = shift;
    my $newStat = $xfer->getStats;

    print( STDERR "Signal IO catched. $newStat->{fileCnt}" );
    return;
}
and run the process with:
sux backuppc perl -d:ptkdb /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump -f athlux

At the moment I have two problems:

1) $newStat->{byteCnt} as well as $newStat->{fileCnt} are 0 each time I 
enter the signal handler

2) Sometimes the process died with:
XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Ressource not available) on X server 
"localhost:10.0"
      after 4555 requests (4362 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
dump failed: Child exited prematurely

X Error of failed request:  BadIDChoice (invalid resource ID chosen for this 
connection)
  Major opcode of failed request:  53 (X_CreatePixmap)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x5c00158
  Serial number of failed request:  7559
  Current serial number in output stream:  7729


Any Idea/hint from one of the expert perl programmers?

Thanks in advance
Matthias
