Tru64 sockets bug?

We are using rsync to maintain a warm mirror of our boot disks.  I just
updated to rsync 2.6.0 and noticed that the rsync runs are now getting
errors when copying sockets.  The system is running Tru64 5.1A pk 4 on 
an AlphaServer 4100.  Is this a bug?  Is there some way to not copy 
sockets or should I find all of them and add them to the exclude file?
rsync was built using a straight ./configure with no options and passed
all the tests once built.

TIA,
  Jon
