Matt straightened me all out, thanks again.
Using -K -L did exactly what I wanted it to do. Now I just need to get
it to work with remotes that aren't at 2.6.3 or above (think I'll be
upgrading those) :)

Thanks, Matt.. I'll try it.
Do you happen to know which rsync version --keep-dirlinks was
introduced? I have 2.6.6 but don't see it as a valid argument.
According to OLDNEWS, --keep-dirlinks was introduced in 2.6.3. Is it
possible that your rsync man page is out of sync with your rsync
executable? See if --keep-dirlinks is listed in `rsync --help`.
The right way to "preserve" symlinks is to use -l without -L, but having
rsync follow symlinks (-L -K) is the only way to get include filters to
apply through symlinks, which you seem to want.
