We (at the UK Mirror Service, http://www.mirrorservice.org/) need our
rsync to work with --dry-run, so we use this brute-force patch. We're
actually using it against 2.6.2 these days -- that bit of code hasn't
changed much for a while...

  				log_transfer(file, fname);
  			}
+ 			initial_stats = stats;
+ 			log_recv(file, &initial_stats);
  			continue;
  		}

I've got a few other UKMS patches to rsync that I'll try and push to
the list at some point in the near future: incoming rsync
notification, virtual filesystem support, and maybe a couple of other
bits.
