The -c option tells rsync to turn on pre-transfer, full-file checksums,
which is an invalid option to specify to specify to the daemon (since it
creates confusion when one side is read/sending checksums and the other
side is not).  The latest code in CVS dies with an error in this
situation.

Just change -c to --config and it should work fine.
