Please specify _exactly_ how you're building rsync. Those options don't exist without applying some extra patches. I can't replicate the problem with stock rsync, which means it's either a problem with the patches, or I'm not triggering the bug properly.
Can you replicate this without a 10.5 box? Can you replicate it with Apple's rsync? Unpatched 3.0.7 rsync? Patched 3.0.7 rsync? Nightly snapshot? I really don't want to spend time investigating an old release, and I need to be able to reproduce the problem before I can help fix it.
I have 10.6 and OpenSolaris easily at hand to test with, but no 10.5 boxes. > I checked out dtrace (OSX version of strace) but it seems a bit > complicated and I don't know how to use it yet.
