That is sneaky.  What are the reasons to remove rsync support?  I know it 
is deprecated, but I'd still like to have it, especially for initial 
clones on small-RAMed machines.

It never got implemented in a way called from C. This is just removing the 
pointer to the empty struct where support would go. If anybody knows 
enough about interfacing with rsync to write the necessary functions, it 
can be restored.
