Not that i am aware of. That particular patch is a bit
to large for my comfort. I don't think any of the other
developers are keen to do this.

If anything i might be persuaded to allow "log file = -" to
cause logging to stdout.
Perhaps you could create a named pipe or fifo(4) which could
be specified in rsyncd.conf. Multilog could be launched
with this pipe redirected to stdin. This would require no
modification to rsync.
