rsync hanging (Sun -> AIX)

[neil.pawson at ps.ge.com]

I've managed to get rsync to work as a daemon rather than via remsh (many
thanks to Martin Pool for suggesting this!).  The remsh problems still
exists though.

Sorry but I got a (possibly) vital piece of information wrong in my last
mail, it turns out that the box is actually a Tru64 UNIX box instead of AIX
as I stated.  Someone told me it was an AIX box when I arrived and I didn't
check.

A further (more minor problem) is that Martin suggested that I move up to
the latest version of rsync but when I compile it on the machine I get the
errors below.  Unfortunately the machine doesn't have gcc on it (which I
know compiles it successfully) so I'm having to use the native cc.  It's
been a while since I've done much C so I'm not sure what's going on here:
