Device majors incorrectly set to 0 during rsync

[Williams, Tom]

OK.  Didn't see anything about this in the archives, other than an old post
from 2000 about a similar problem, so here goes.  Feel free to contact me if
I can provide anything else useful.

Problem:
--------
Major numbers on 64bit Solaris are being dropped, and created as 0 on
recieving end.  32bit version works perfectly.

Environment:
------------
Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 (haven't tried any other 64bit OSes)
SunPRO cc
CFLAGS = -xO2
CFLAGS += -xarch=v9 (turns on 64 bit compile)

Configure:
----------
./configure --enable-debug=no

Build:
------
gmake

Run:
----
./rsync -av /devices/pseudo/ /tmp/foo

Symptoms:
---------
