Here's the patch that was in the bug report:

diff -urN rsync-2.5.1.orig/flist.c rsync-2.5.1/flist.c

+#ifdef HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_ST_RDEV
    file->rdev = st.st_rdev;
 #endif


This solves part of the problem, but there's a related problem discussed in

    http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/rsync/2001-November/005358.html

which hasn't yet been addressed.  The user reported she was using 2.4.6,
and in that release configure was setting HAVE_ST_RDEV, not
HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_RT_RDEV, so it couldn't have been the above problem.  It
looks like this problem was introduced on November 24 in

    http://cvs.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/configure.diff?r1=1.85&r2=1.86&f=h

which was just 3 days before the message I posted above.  According to the
CVS I keep for the rsync binaries I distribute, I didn't upgrade between
November 16 & 30 so I'm quite sure I wasn't testing with the newly broken
version.
