Hi Matt,

a footnote:
Back on OS 10.5.1, I ran backup bouncer on the compiled OS10.3 rsync  
(without ACL, Xattrs enabled)

Verifying:    basic-permissions ... ok
Verifying:           timestamps ...
    Sub-test:    modification time ... ok
ok
Verifying:             symlinks ... ok

Verifying:                 fifo ... ok
Verifying:              devices ... ok
Verifying:          combo-tests ...
    Sub-test:  xattrs + rsrc forks ... FAIL
    Sub-test:     lots of metadata ... FAIL
FAIL


not so good... not sure the results would look any better under 10.3.  
And yet fifo and devices came up shining (the only ones that didn't on  
the 10.5 build)!

Thanks, Rob
