which should just take a small change to the parser code.
+
Errors
If we hang or get SIGINT, then explain where we were up to. Perhaps
explaining why the socket is closed. I'm not sure if this would
work, but it would certainly make our messages more helpful.
+ What happens if a directory is missing -x attributes. Do we lose
+ our load? (Debian #28416) Probably fixed now, but a test case
+ would be good.
+
+
File attributes
Device major/minor numbers should be at least 32 bits each. See
If a child of the rsync daemon dies with a signal, we should notice
that when we reap it and log a message.
+ Keep stderr and stdout properly separated (Debian #23626)
+
+ Use a separate function for reporting errors; prefix it with
+ "rsync:" or "rsync(remote)", or perhaps even "rsync(local
+ generator): ".
+
rsyncd over ssh
the program. For bonus points there would be a test case for the
parser.
+ (Debian #23628)
+
--diff
(Suggestion from david.e.sewell)
+Incorrect timestamps (Debian #100295)
+
+ A bit hard to believe, but apparently it happens.
+
+
+Check "refuse options works"
+
+ We need a test case for this...
+
+ Was this broken when we changed to popt?
+
+
+String area code
+
+ Test whether this is actually faster than just using malloc(). If
+ it's not (anymore), throw it out.

PLATFORMS ------------------------------------------------------------
Win32
Test daemon feature to disallow particular options.
+Pipe program that makes slow/jerky connections.
+
+Versions of read() and write() that corrupt the stream, or abruptly fail
+
+Separate makefile target to run rough tests -- or perhaps just run
+them every time?
