The target has to be a subvol also. But interestingly enough, it also
fails for a subvol. The base send works, the incremental fails, because
btrfs receive can't find snaps/snap_081012_1715. If you give /mnt/snaps
as the target for the base and just /mnt for the incremental, it works.
There's clearly something broken there...
