Throwing this out here so that Google knows about it - I have
investigated into an odd rsync error - 'Time value of <directory path>
truncated on receiver.' - and found that it was caused by spurious
modified timestamps on directories that have been created by lftp
(v4.3.6-1, Debian Testing) mirroring a directory from a BulletProof FTP
Server.

It seems that every directory bar one has the '1899-12-30 00:00'
modified date (which will naturally cause rsync to choke).

Logging in manually and listing the home directory:

==================================================================

drwxr-xr-x   1 ftp      ftp             0 Jul 19 13:49 <directory>
drwxr-xr-x   1 ftp      ftp             0 Jul 17 21:07 <directory>
drwxr-xr-x   1 ftp      ftp             0 Jul 19 16:31 <directory>

==================================================================

Clearly the year is broken here. FileZilla doesnt seem to mind and
returns 2012 during testing.
