I am in the process of undefining GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIR and
recompiling. I have had a look at the sources and, as I understand it,
the --newer flag is passed *only* when I *don't* use
GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIR. From client-src/sendsize.c, around line
1220:

#ifdef GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIR
                         " --listed-incremental ", incrname,
#else
                         " --incremental",
                         " --newer ", dumptimestr,
#endif

So, actually, the --newer flag *will* be passed if I undef
GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIR and I don't miss anything, do I?
