Variant on this is that mounting using "prerun" doesn't fly.

I want to mount the /backup filesystem as part of the "prerun" commands.
This doesn't currently work because Hdup is looking for the previous
backup list before running the "prerun" commands.  Would it be okay of
the "prerun" commands were run before locking and before looking for the
previous backup list?
