sorry about the prefix changes in rsync-patches. We're going to be dropping
the whole rsync-patches system soon anyway, as it really isn't working
well. It was supposed to be a staging area where users would test the
patches before being considered for the main release, but we haven't really
received any feedback on the patches, so not serving a useful purpose now.
I'll probably stop updating it for the next release.
