xattrs are probably not involved since I too can reproduce the problem by just
untarring bug5567.tar.gz (which does not have them) to /tmp (which should be
just regular ext3 without any special setup). No special patches have been
applied, this was compiled from

8b1eb7e42b36744cf580a2fba6224087  rsync-3.0.3pre3.tar.gz

I also don't think there is any selinux setup on the debian stable system  (at
least I have never configured any). Finally, I started

sudo sh -c 'while true; do lsof |grep rsync|wc; done'

before running rsync and it printed

   17     153    1533
   1065    9591  126779
   1065    9587  126745

   1065    9587  126745

    178    1626   20262
      0       0       0

so rsync quite rapidly opened all the files it could and then started to give
out errors.

If you still can't reproduce I could prepare a clean qemu image where this can
be reproduced, would that help?
