Using a self-built rsync 3.0.7 without socket pairs, I've encountered a problem using snapshots later than 2010-03-28.

Other rsync operations of real (larger) files appear to hang. I didn't notice any problems with the stock rsync, but I didn't do much testing. Reverting back to the 2010-03-28 snapshot solves the problem. -- David Rothenberger ---- daver...@acm.org Deja vu: French., already seen; unoriginal; trite.
