Since the changes at Bug 30627, sometimes backup files older than X days don't
get deleted as they are meant to.

In our case, this happens when:

- koha-dump does not return a success status
- because `tar -c` throws a warning "tar:
var/log/koha/INSTANCENAME/opac-access.log: file changed as we read it"

The new dump is created, but the warning is enough to interrupt
koha-run-backups before it gets to deleting old backups.

This causes excess backups to be stored and fills up the disk.
