This is now documented in the FAQ: http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/FAQ.html#13 " This error means that rsync failed to handle an expected error from the compression code for a file that happened to be transferred with a block size of 32816 bytes. You can avoid this issue for the affected file by transferring it with a manually-set block size (e.g. --block-size=33000), or by upgrading the receiving side to rsync 3.0.7.
