I'm not sure if anyone else is interested, but here's a tool I've been using with rsync-3.0pre2 to backup my powerpc/mac onto linux with ext3 and fake-super: gcc -Wall -O2 -shared -fPIC -o libxattr.so libxattr.c -lsqlite3 This intercepts calls from rsync that deal with extended attributes.

Maybe with an option to pass to configure to allow overriding the error??? . I was aware
