Use lchmod and lutimes, if present

Please test this patch and see if it works for you.  You will need to run
"autoconf; autoheader; make proto" (or "make gen" if you
already have a
Makefile) and then re-run configure (e.g. "./config.status --recheck;
./config.status" if you already ran configure in that dir) before running
"make".

the patch applies clean to: cvs co -D '2005-07-07 22:53:59-0000'

tag or date to apply to]. ./configures ok, but make tanks with... 

gcc -I. -I. -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -I./popt  -c rsync.c -o rsync.o
rsync.c: In function `set_perms':
rsync.c:75: too many arguments to function `set_modtime'
*** Error code 1
Stop in /tmp/rsync.


so skipping ahead and using this instead...
 cvs co -D '2005-07-31 00:00:00-0000'
...slinks work great. the following changes to the source slinks
are now transferred to the destination correctly...
 create/delete/user/group/perm/mtime
ran against a couple million mixed inodes. all but a
device and/or hardlink issue check out so far. checking...

HUGE THANKS TO THE RSYNC DEVEL[S] FOR THIS SLINK WORK!!!

I checked this fix in to CVS a few days ago, so this appears to be fixed now. 
Thanks for your help testing this.
