OK, I've read through the patch and the original thread re this problem. There are a few obvious things to try:
- Does the problem come up when there is only one rsync running concurrently? (If so, we have a SMP race.)
- Is the behaviour the same before and after Ted's cleanups? (Get the old version out of cvs...)
- Does the problem manifest with Ext2? (Somebody - me probably - has to dust off the Ext2 patch and add the new hash.)
