Hi, thanks for the patch and comments on rsync3.  I'm in the process
of committing these patches to the 2.6.0 branch.

I want to get a stable 2.5 out to give people some relief for the
recent burst of fixes, and I think in this case it's probably better
to live with the devil we know.

Is the change to call exit() rather than returning from main meant to
change behaviour, or is it just for consistency?

I liked your ideas about detecting renamed files.  Because we pipeline
signature generation at the moment, it would not be straightforward to
implement but it might well be possible.
