I see rsync has this in rsync.h
#ifndef HAVE_LCHOWN
#define lchown chown
#endif
So on Linux lchown changes the ownership on a symlink, whereas chown
on a symlink will change the ownership of its target. man lchown says

I compiled and tried rsync 2.5.0 but could not get the server
running. loadparm.c:string_set() now calls free() which it did not do
in 2.4.6 and this free() tries to free memory that was not allocated
with malloc.
Here is a gdb run (done after adding return before fork() in
become_daemon) which s
Does anybody care about supporting non-English message locales in
rsync? (Do all sysadmins speak English? :-) Would anybody contribute
translations if we had the framework?

I'm starting to think we need to not show all the options in the
default --help output. I think perhaps the default should be to show
the commonly-used options (-avz, --include, : vs ::) and then have
--help-options and so on for more details. It is getting quite

I compiled and tried rsync 2.5.1pre1.
RSYNC with -F option dumps a core.

GNU gdb 5.1
(gdb) r -F

Yes, should have thought to make that clear initially.
