If you're not running the latest rsync, it's wise to check the ChangeLog
of the latest version. You'll not only find the answer to the question at
hand, but you'll learn about other things as well.

Look for MAXPATHLEN.
- Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
That seems to be your problem. So upgrading to 2.6.7 will most likely fix
this for you.
