I don't know any details, but from a quick grep through the Debian
changelog in Sid I get the impression that there might be an additional
ACL patch that you have to apply if you compile yourself. Here are the
parts that mention ACL patches:
-----------
rsync (2.6.9-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Applied patch from upstream to fix problem
with --acl together with --delete
(see http://lists.samba.org/archiv:ee/rsync/2006-November/016706.html)
[...]
rsync (2.6.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
[...]
* Now includes the ACL patch.
[...]
rsync (2.6.9~pre3-1) experimental; urgency=low
[...]
* Applied ACL patch. Please test :-)
-----------
I hope this helps. (You did not mention if you built from the Debian or
from the upstream sources. I would expect that the newest Debian
sources have the second patch applied already.)
