Sorry about spamming the list. This update is just to say that I have
tested solutions 1 and 2 and there is no solution:
1) If I configure with --disable-acl --enable-xattr, configure is OK
but make can't compile xattr.c because it seems linked to ACL code...
2) The versions disponible at darwinport and fink are unpatched
(without extended-attributes) or just avaliable for 10.4+.
So I would really need to compile it from source, if someone have a
magic argument like --compile-on-10.3-with-xattr-without-acl...

Somebody knows if it's possible to compile rsync (version 3 would be
great, but can be 2.6.x) under Mac OS X 10.3.9 with extended
attributes?
Under OS 10.3.9 the Apple shipped rsync have not yet the -E argument
option. RsyncX have a double free bug that is annoying. "Q" rsync
2.6.6 with extended attributes binary only works on 10.4 and above.
I have tried to compile rsync from source but the problem I found is
that the xattr patch seems to need the acl patch. But 10.3 doesn't
have the ACL support so doesn't provides the expected headers and
the make command fails.
I will try out 2 more things:
1) Ignore the instructions of xattr patch and do not apply the acl
patch before xattr (but if those instructions are there, I'm almost
sure it's for a good reason...)
2) Try to get a patched rsync via fink or darwinport
But I would appreciate any help or feedback about compiling a
extended-attribute rsync on 10.3.9, even more if it's the last
version (meaning that rsync could still progress on those macs and
the development is not closed for them).
