 > I was hoping to see some kind of compiler error or warning in the
 config.log relating to the "checking type of array argument to getgroups"
 test in the config.log, but I don't see anything like that in there, so
 no, I don't have any ideas.

 Thank you for checking!

 > As I said earlier, the check for `getgroups` is implemented in a
 standard autoconf macro `AC_TYPE_GETGROUPS`, so if it's giving the wrong
 value, then that's where the fix is needed (in
 [https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/ autoconf]); it's not something
 specific to rsync.

 For w/e reason, `rsync` 3.2.3 builds fine though. Nothing else changed, I
 just took an earlier portfile.
