Good catch! Rsync needs to send the --no-relative option to the remote
rsync when it has sent the --files-from option (it avoids doing that
when --files-from was not sent to the other side because it allows a
sender to send a files-from-generated list to an older rsync version).
I've just checked-in a fix for this into the CVS version. I'll also
attach the patch, which should be easy to apply to 2.6.3 or earlier
(though I didn't check to see if it applies cleanly to older versions).
Thanks for the very complete bug report! It made it a snap to figure
out what was wrong and fix it.
