Hmm,  

alexm at distanza:~$ ./rsync --rsync-path=/usr/local/rsync-cvs/bin/rsync  distanza:/etc/shadow . 
send_files failed to open /etc/shadow: Permission denied
Write failed flushing stdout buffer.
write stdout: Broken pipe
rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at main.c(948)

alexm at distanza:~$ echo $?
255


Yes, it returns non-zero errorlevel, but I do not know whether the
last two messages are induced.



Thanks!  I think it will temporarily solve our "NOT-OURS" issues.  If
you have any more suggestions -- we'd be glad to test those out.
