This is strong evidence that the umask seen by the receiving rsync
process may not be what you expect. To find out what the umask is, run
something like:
ssh mcstrans at hostname umask
It might also be helpful to strace the receiving rsync by passing
--rsync-path="strace -f -o /tmp/rsync.log rsync" .
