Comment (by david@…):

 This bug is easy to reproduce.

 Seems like the bug only occurs when the source is a Linux system with
 extended attributes set on a file/directory.

 Fix right now appears to be removing -X when rsync'ing between disparate
 OS types, like Linux + OSX.

 Linux to Linux seems to work fine + OSX to OSX seems to work fine.
