exactly MAXPATHLEN was not handled correctly, and one handling a

+ - Fixed a data-corruption issue when preserving hard-links without

+ the transfer. This fixes some assert errors in the hard-linking code,

- Fixed a potential crash when an rsync daemon has a filter/exclude list
- and the transfer is using ACLs or extended attributes.
+ and the transfer is using ACLs or xattrs.
+
+ - Fixed a hang if a really large file is being processed by an rsync that
+ can't handle 64-bit numbers. Rsync will now complain about the file
+ being too big and skip it.
+
+ - For devices and special files, we now avoid gathering useless ACL and/or
+ xattr information for files that aren't being copied. (The uncopied
+ files are still put into the file list, but there's no need to gather
+ data that is not going to be used.) This ensures that if the user uses
+ --no-D, that rsync can't possibly complain about being unable to gather
+ extended information from special files that are in the file list (but
+ not in the transfer).
- - Properly handle requesting remote filenames that start with a dash.
+ - Properly handle requesting remote filenames that start with a dash. This
+ avoids a potential error where a filename could be interpreted as a
+ (usually invalid) option.
- Fixed a bug in the comparing of upper-case letters in file suffixes for
--skip-compress.
an inplace chunk was handled by a seek rather than a read+write.
- If we fail to connect to an rsync daemon, report all the connection
- errors (e.g. ipv4 & ipv6), not just the last one.

+ changes against the alt-dest directory's xattr/ACL info but was instead

- Improved xattr system-error messages to mention the full path to the
file.
+ - Avoid trying to read/write xattrs on certain file types for certain OSes.
+ Improved configure to set NO_SYMLINK_XATTRS, NO_DEVICE_XATTRS, and/or
+ NO_SPECIAL_XATTRS defines in config.h.
+
- Improved the unsafe-symlink errors messages.
- Fixed a bug setting xattrs on new files that aren't user writable.
- Fixed a bug with --fake-super when copying files and dirs that aren't
user writable.
+ - If a temp-file name is too long, rsync now avoids truncating the name in
+ the middle of adjacent high-bit characters. This prevents a potential
+ filename error if the filesystem doesn't allow a name to contain an
+ invalid multi-byte sequence.
+
+ - If a muli-protocol socket connection fails (i.e., when contacting a
+ daemon), we now report all the failures, not just the last one. This
+ avoids losing a relevant error (e.g. an IPv4 connection-refused error)
+ that happened before the final error (e.g. an IPv6 protocol-not-supported
+ error).
+
- Fix the popt arg parsing so that an option that doesn't take an arg will
- reject an attempt to supply and arg.
+ reject an attempt to supply one.
- A couple minor option tweaks to support/rrsync script, and also some
regex changes that make vim highlighting happier.
+ - Fixed some issues in the support/mnt-excl script.
+
- A few manpage improvements.
+ ENHANCEMENTS:
+
+ - Added ".hg/" to the default cvs excludes (see -C & --cvs-exclude).

- Use lchmod() whenever it is available (not just on symlinks).
