rsync - Mar 2002 - rsync 2.5.4 -v output (minor knit)

I noticed a difference in verbose output that appears to be unintentional.
it first prints 'receiving file list ...', then builds the list and
prints
'done\n'.  I haven't figured out the exact conditions yet, but with
multiple remote sources (remote shell expands) it sometimes prints the
'done\n' message multiple times.  I have a script I use to sync up my
dot-files with multiple files and excludes that prints the 'done\n' line
16
times.

Is there a simple fix?  People parsing the output of -v may want to be
aware of this.  I first saw it in 2.5.3.

I have not seen this, and I would appreciate a simple set of steps to
reproduce it.  I touched that code recently so I guess I should fix it.
I tried
    rsync -av 'host:`echo dir1/*`' dir2
and that didn't do it.
