That is a known limitation of the removal of a really old kluge in the
listing code. To quote from the NEWS file:
- Requesting a remote file list without specifying -r (--recursive) now
sends the -d (--dirs) option to the remote rsync rather than sending
-r along with an extra exclude of /*/*. If the remote rsync does not
understand the -d option (i.e. it is 2.6.3 or older), you will need to
either turn off -d (--no-d), or specify -r --exclude='/*/*' manually.
