Thanks for the quick reply! In fact, the mode is beeing truncated. The fprintf yields the following:
0100000755 (the directory) 0300000755 (a regular file) So, it seems that my system is not compliant to the values that rsync expects. In fact, my system is a mainframe running Unix System Services, but this system is compliant to POSIX. Previously I was running rsync-2.6.9 on that system and it was working well. Thanks!
