Package: rsync
Version: 3.0.3-2
Severity: normal

Running rsync -avHX /foo /bar, where /foo contains several hundred Gb of
data, (and a lot of hard links) I eventually get:

rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (429796854 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(635) 
[sender=3.0.3]

This is on a 32-bit system, where the source file system is reiserfs and
the destination file system ext3. I'm surprised that I don't seem to
find anything about this problem by searching (I only see mentions of
limits on individual file size).
