Thank you for the quick feedback,
and especially for the verbose log.

This suggests that the mkfifo program did not do its job
(did not create mode/fifo), yet exited successfully.
mkfifo.c does little more than to call the mkfifo function.
Does this print anything?
rm -rf fifo
perl -MPOSIX -e 'mkfifo "fifo", 0644 or die "$!\n"'

The above is probably similar.

For most of the above, this appears (judging solely
from that log) to be a problem involving the lchmod function
as called by copy.c's copy_internal function.
E.g.,
ginstall: setting permissions for `no-dir1/no-dir2/dest': Invalid argument
cp: setting permissions for `g/sym/b/c': Invalid argument
Can you debug that?

Maybe someone else (Bruno Haible?) will look into this part.

It'd be great if you could run those, too.
