No, but it did expect an E2BIG in preference to an EILSEQ, which might not be
the case.  I've fixed that in the latest git (for 3.1.0).

I would hope that iconv() would not return EILSEQ if inbuf.len was zero, but I
went ahead and made the code avoid the extra iconv() call if the input buffer
goes empty.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts -- the code should be a good bit safer now.

Can you test if the latest rsync fixes the crash for you?
