(rsync  version 2.5.2  protocol version 26)
Thank you, I commented out the code and now it reports status 23
when I try to copy a remote file to a local read-only directory.
I hope it is more like losing an appendix than a kidney.

static RETSIGTYPE sigchld_handler(int val) {
//#ifdef WNOHANG
        //while (waitpid(-1, NULL, WNOHANG) > 0) ;
//#endif
}
