Wow. Heck of a script. Not much fun trying to get it to work on my test system.
Could not find your problem but by the way you describe it, I still think there is something wrong with the way it is counting the backups.

Options:
1. add one last backup to make it 'work'. SURE, this doesn't
fix the problem but may make the script work again
- and the most important thing is getting the backups.
Get a test system to do the rest of the options so you
can work on it while letting the 'fix' allow backups.
2. turn on the DEBUG on it and run it - find out where it's breaking
give it a small number of backups to do and see if it's still
giving an error. Check the logs and all output. Make sure
you KNOW the correct number of backups you are doing.
Check your fsf options in the script and by checking the tape
during testing.
3. Look again - something had to have changed
- a new patch on the system
- a new backup added
- check those log files throughly - insure ALL the backups you
think are working ARE working

DESCRIPTION

       The   CardBus   slots   in   Solaris   are  hot	plug  capable.	This  capability  is  supported  by  the  PCI  hardware  specific  library
       /usr/lib/cfgadm/pci.so.1 through the cfgadm command (see cfgadm(1M)).

       The hot plug administrative models between  CardBus,  PCI,  CompactPCI,	and  PCI  Express  operate  the  same  fashion.  Please  refer	to
       cfgadm_pci(1M) for the usage information.
