OSX 10.6.4 error with -R option

[Robert DuToit]

Hi All,

I have had reports of problems with the -R option on OSX 10.6.4.

Just tested it myself and found this odd result:

When I run this

"dtruss -f  path/to/rsync -aHAXNR --fileflags --force-change --protect-decmpfs --stats -v  /Users/astrid/Documents/main.m  /Users/astrid/Desktop/rrr 

it produces the expected results with the relative folder paths in place

 /Users/astrid/Desktop/rrr/Users/astrid/Desktop/main.m

but copying file from Desktop itself

"dtruss -f  path/to/rsync -aHAXNR --fileflags --force-change --protect-decmpfs --stats -v  /Users/astrid/Desktop/main.m  /Users/astrid/Desktop/rrr

/Users/astrid/Desktop/rrr/Users/astrid/

empty!

Oddly, it works fine from a clone of this system (cloned a few weeks ago) and on OSX 10.5.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks, Rob
