ENHANCEMENTS:
- Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any

- Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
characters rather than '?'s. Any non-printable character is output

+ password mismatch, etc.). (The client-visible message is unchanged.)
- Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that
it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we

+ - Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented
+ rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support.

- You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale().
- Configure now disables the use of mkstemp() under HP-UX (since they
