bup 0.34 or so changed in ways that breaks the bup special remote
when not operating on a ssh remote. This affects git-annex test.
--remote no longer accepts a local path, but only a host:path or some url forms (not file:// though even though it is documented to be supported).
Instead, use eg bup -d <path> split. Will also work for init,
even though the new bup does also support bup init <path>
The bup -d approach seems to work with older versions of bup as
well. --Joey
