Thanks for pointing those out!  I've made sure that the mode does not
get tweaked by --chmod if it is 0, and changed the --list-only output
to start with "*missing", as you suggested.

If someone is doing inotify-based --files-from transfers and a filename
is now missing, maybe they really want --delete-missing-args to ensure
that the receiver doesn't have a version of the now-missing file.  If
not, I think --ignore-missing-args might be a nice matching option name.
