I am also seeing this error for the first time recently. In December 2013 it 
wasn't happening; now it is consistently happening. Log:

(I replaced the key URLs with "redacted" because I am not sure about security 
implications of sharing them in public.)

It is the same file that is the problem every time. It is one of the new Google 
Drive Forms which now have two files - one the front end of the form, and the 
other the results spreadsheet. This file that is erroring in backup is the 
front end of the form.
