That sounds like some weirdness introduced by the MacOS patches. You
should probably look for someone that is responsible for the MacOS
customizations and ask them about this error.
If you are using the rsync binary supplied with 10.4, you should
submit a bug to Apple via http://bugreport.apple.com. If you are
using rsyncX, you should contact the developer at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've been pushing Apple to work with the mainline rsync developers
to get their changes incorporated, but from what I can tell they've
not done anything or are not interested.
Thank you for that very helpful info Patrick,
The bug report is submitted.
Being up in years, though, I may never see it resolved :-)

FYI
I also added the following to the bug report
Running rsync locally (at least) with the following command line:
sudo rsync -axEHuvv --delete --inplace
--exclude-from=/Users/Chinook/ShellScripts/diffcloneEXCLUDES
/Volumes/Mirrored_HD_Set/ /Volumes/LaCie_Disk_B
In addition to the other problems I've noted, Apple's rsync (2.6.3
protocol version 28) also changes more than a few permissions in
./Library/Application Support/ ./Library/Fonts/ ./Library/Internet
Plug-Ins/ ./Library/Scripts/ and ./System/Library/ (from -rw-rw-r--
to -r--------).
Be warned to run Disk Utility repair permissions on target immediately
afterwards.
Snippet from lengthy DU permissions repair output:
Permissions differ on ./Library/Application
Support/Apple/Automator/Workflows/Applications/._Process
Images.workflow, should be -rwxrwxr-x , they are -r--------
Owner and group corrected on ./Library/Application
Support/Apple/Automator/Workflows/Applications/._Process Images.workflow
Permissions corrected on ./Library/Application
Support/Apple/Automator/Workflows/Applications/._Process Images.workflow
