Hurm.  What OS are you running this on?

After upgrading my local/receiver rsync to 2.6.8 I get this:

local# rsync remote::users/grp012/12/nhruby/public_html/ 
drwxr-xr-x         416 2005/11/12 11:57:37 public_html

local# rsync remote::users/grp012/12/nhruby/public_html/ www
skipping directory grp012/12/nhruby/public_html
