On Windows, I remember a similar problem, where some packer (for lz4 or 
some other) was deleted from the tex-tree by some over-eager anti-virus, 
TeX did see another packer with the same name but provided by Windows, 
used that, and that packer did not work as expected - maybe it had other 
options or something like that. The result was a zero-bit-file. TeX just 
checked, whether the backup was created (or did not check at all?), and 
was happy with the 0 size file.
So, maybe the backup file should be checked before deleting the original 
files (at least checking for size > 0)?
