Those patches are Mac-specific, so I'm pretty sure they won't go into
the main rsync, but it would make sense to include them in packagings of
rsync for Mac OS X.  The two main packagings I know of are from Fink and
MacPorts:

http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/rsync
http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/net/rsync/Portfile

It appears that the Fink package includes the patches but the MacPorts
one doesn't; someone should encourage the MacPorts people to add the
patches.
