------- Comment #2 from wayned at samba.org  2009-09-05 10:52 CST -------
If rsync starts a child process, it can set its exit code based on what that
process returned.  If that process didn't exit cleanly, the code can be out of
the normal list of error codes that rsync returns, which generated the
unexplained error.

Note that this question would have been better asked on the mailing list, since
it is not noting a bug.
