BenH's rsync is currently at 2.4.5-pre3.  One thing that you do need to do
(and I wasn't totally sure if the way I did it was correct) is make sure
airport gets taken down before sleep.  The driver currently doesn't know
anything about state and when you wake up, it becomes quite mad (and spams
w/ info about re-trying packet X).  I figured /var/tmp/ might be the right
spot, but..  Non-airport cards don't seem to have the problem (but it was
in a real pcmcia slot, so it might have been turned 'off' correctly).

Most definatly.
