Count the characters in the displayed <path> and you'll see what the
max_path value is.  That message is output by the sender, and indicates
names that are too long to put into the stream of file-list data.  Since
rsync currently uses paths from a single chdir, you cannot send files that
overflow the OS's max-path limit when referenced by the in-transfer path +
filename.
