The receiver decompresses the incoming file data in exactly the same
way whether or not it succeeds in creating the temporary file; the
only difference is whether the receiver writes the data to the
temporary file or discards it.  So I think the "Permission denied"
error is unrelated to the decompression error.  Furthermore, the
message that rsync is exiting refers to line 419 of token.c, which is
reached when there is a decompression error.  Thus, I reason that the
decompression error is the real problem.

Note: "Permission denied" is EACCES, not EPERM.
