rsync for NCR MP-RAS (SRV 4)

[Dave Dykstra]

I haven't tried to build on an NCR MP-RAS machine lately, but I do know
that the binaries I build on Unixware 1.1.2 run on NCR machines.  You can
try my 2.5.1 binary from the "SVR4" directory you can get to from
    http://rsync.samba.org/rsync/download.html

Let me know if it works and if you still need to compile it from source.
