rsync-2.6.3pre1: --delete-after does not work

[Stefan Hoelldampf]

Hi,

Using "--delete-after" does not work with
2.6.3pre1 (sender, Fedora Core 2) and
2.5.7 (receiver, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3):

> rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (12 bytes received so far) [sender]
> rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359)

I have also tried to create a small testcase, but then rsync hangs
without doing anything.

Nevertheless "--delete" works.

When changing roles (sender: RHEL3 with rsync-2.5.7, receiver: FC2 with
rsync-2.6.3pre1) there are no problems.

With rsync-2.6.2 (on Fedora Core 2) everything is OK.
