Actually, the whole point of --ignore-dir-times is that the dir mod
time is not changed each time you rsync.
Thanks for the updates. Yes, rsync's included zlib isn't compatible with
system zlib. However, since you are not using the -z option, I don't think
that's the issue.
Can you try rsync-bpc 3.1.2.1? It has more testing than 3.1.3.beta0.

And restores all seemed to work last night, until I tried dumps today.
Now all my scheduled backups fail with error message:
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226)
[Receiver=3.1.3.beta0]
Jeff,
I did set the policy to permissive. If I get some time I'll try again.
