Summary: fifo's may only be copied by root
Product: rsync
Version: 2.6.5
Platform: x86
OS/Version: FreeBSD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: core

the creation of a fifo (named pipe) is not a privileged function - at least on
freebsd, linux and solaris.
so it should not require root-privileges to be done.
instead they should be copied like ordinary files, too.
