Confirmed that it now works for that case.

The other issue in the bug report is something else, but as that happens
when using 3.0.0 going to the 2.6.8 version running at rsync.net, it's
pretty impossible to debug. Apparently the remote rsync simply dies
immediately when presented with the 3.0.0 client connection.
As reproducing the setup with 3.0.0 and 2.6.8 works fine for me, I'm
going to mark it unreproducible, it's probably a problem at rsync.net.

I think I should be thanking you for the quick fix :)
