rsync - Dec 2003 - Rsync 2.5.7 hangs after completion

I am having a problem with rsync hanging after completion.  The command I 
am using is: rsync -vaz --delete /banproc/ backenp650:/banproc (thanks jw 
for the syntax correction)

There were 56 deletions on the destination and ~ 1380 files copied total (I 
gathered these stats by using grep and wc -l on a saved file of my ssh 
session to the source host).  Below is the last couple of lines on my ssh 
session.  Pressing enter will give me an extra blank line.  There are blank 
lines after the last file was copied.  I have not pressed CTRL-C yet.  I do 
not have the prompt yet nor are the normal statistics/report returned from 
rsync.

After completion, while hanging waiting for report and shell prompt,
On the sending side:

On the receiving side:
ps -ef | grep rsync

Any ideas?

rsync 2.5.7 over remsh on AIX, oy!

You could try the --non-blocking-io option.
Even better would be to use ssh.
