MacTools Mirror Problem?

Has anyone experienced problems with the "Mirror" CDEV (version 2.2)
which is part of the MacTools package?  The CDEV keeps an invisible
"delete tracking file" in the system folder which allows you to
undelete any trashed file, assuming the actual disk tracks have not
been over-written.  Periodically I find that this delete tracking
file is damaged, and I am forced to use the CDEV to remove and
reinstall the file.  Of course, this always happens right when I need
to restore something I threw away inadvertantly.  Any ideas as to the
problem?  I'm running system 6.0.5 on a Mac II with all kinds of
extra inits (albeit a carefully checked-out set that has given me
no problems; no other inits or cdevs which track file deletes, no
defragmenter running). My only guess is that I am near the stops on disk 
space- an 80 meg disk which sometimes has only 1 or 2 meg free.
