 BLATHER ABOUT NOT USING INNXMIT

 scan for backlog files
 take "old enough" backlog files one at a time and reprocess them
 so need another input file - the current backlog file
 inhibit scanning for backlog files only when
   - last file not "old enough"
   - no backlog files found and we haven't made one

 also we have to start a new backlog file every (some interval)
