I tested --partial-dir on my computer, and when I kill rsync manually by pressing Ctrl-C, the behavior is as I said. Rsync needs to be aware that the connection has dropped in order to clean up after itself and store the partial file. Maybe it is waiting forever to read data from the connection. If so, you might be able to fix the problem by passing a --timeout. If that doesn't help, please strace the remote rsync by passing --rsync-path="strace -f -o rsync.log rsync" and inspecting rsync.log on the remote machine afterwards.
