Ming, the situation hasn't changed since you asked this question in
January:

Wayne, yes, the FERROR_XFER messages are printed to stderr, but they do
not follow a common pattern, and some (especially in acls.c) don't even
include the name of the affected file, so getting a list of the failed
files is nontrivial.
