I posted a message to the list earlier about rsync's problem with a

I have been trying to backup some files which rsync and it always
chokes on this file.
It simple halts with a non intuitive error message.
One man's non intuitive error message is another man's full story of what went
wrong.
rsync --version produces this info :
rsync version 3.0.4 protocol version 30
It is the same on boths sides of the llink
Can it be tested in some way?
Is there some process for getting the rsync developers to check it?
Here is a link to the file: http://lz.rca2.net/colinux-0.7.5.exe
It's very unlikely that the problem is with the file's contents. It's much
more likely a problem with permissions
or differing options between filesystems. Please send the error message to the
list.
I don't have 3.0.4 anywhere, but that file transferred perfectly fine to and
from pairs of machines running 3.0.{6,
7, and 8}.
