It seems latest rsync pass -e to the remote server to specify rsync client is a preversion (A thing I understand because -e works on all rsync version). However, this cause problems on server having options restriction, like denying -e because it allow to execute any command on it.
So I suggest this patch to limit effect to unstable version of clients.
WDYT ?
Regards.
