- Fixed a potential hang when verbosity is high, the client side is
the sender, and the file-list is large.

- We now check if the OS doesn't support using mknod() for creating
FIFOs and sockets, and compile-in using mkfifo() and socket() when
necessary.

- The stat size of a device is not added to the total file size of the

ENHANCEMENTS:
- Rsync now supports popt's option aliases, which means that you can
- Added the --remove-sent-files option, which lets you move files
between systems.
+ - The hostname in HOST:PATH or HOST::PATH may now be an IPv6 literal
+ enclosed in '[' and ']' (e.g. "[::1]"). (We already allowed IPv6
+ literals in the rsync://HOST:PORT/PATH format.)

- When building under windows, the default for --daemon is now to
avoid detaching, requiring the new --detach option to force rsync
to detach.
--filter option instead of --exclude-from to capture any filter rules.
