rsync - Feb 2010 - Modified rsync over SSL patch

Hi,
 
I've been working with Casey Marshall's SSL patch, and couldn't get
it to work reliably - the transfer would abort pretty quickly. So I rewrote the
main data pump loop of the patch to use non-blocking IO, and am attaching the
new patch.
An rsync program using this patch is interoperable with the old patch.
 
Along with the modified message pump I added the following improvements:
- Buffering data to produce large SSL records (16K) to increase the
encryption/decryption efficiency.
- Control of the SSL cipher list on the client via the RSYNC_SSL_CIPHERS
environment variable
- Graceful termination in order to better pass last error messages from the
server to the client
 
To use the patch (against 3.0.7):
 
??? patch -p1 < rsync-openssl.diff
??? ./prepare-source
??? ./configure
??? make
 
 
Enjoy,
Uri.

Thanks!  I've done a little cleanup and committed the improved patch.  Sorry
for being super slow to get that done.
