According to the source code that only happens at the beginning of
connecting to an rsync --daemon module, if the option "use chroot = no" is
not set, and if a chroot(2) to the module's "path" fails. The chroot(2)
can fail if the daemon isn't running as root or if the "path" directory
doesn't exist.
