8 bit filenames?

Are there any characters that can occur in filenames that will choke
rsync?

We're transferring lots of data, and some of our users' filenames appear
to have their high bit set.

I don't expect it to cope with filenames having a \0 or / in them
(sometimes created over appletalk shares - strange but true), but it'd
be great to know if rsync can handle all other characters, or only
"normal" characters.

Thanks!
