using rsync in a sceduled script


I have a very odd problem.

I'm using rsync 2.5.6 in a bash script that is scheduled to run using
windows XP scheduler.

Rsync works perfectly everytime from the command line, but sometimes after
the rsync operation completes when it is run using a script/scheduler, I get
this error and rsync sits running (hung) till I manually kill it.
 
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at /tmp/rsync-2.5.6/main.c(1045)

I logged stdout and stderr from the script, and here is what it looks like:
receiving file list ... done
wrote 97 bytes  read 1569 bytes  175.37 bytes/sec
total size is 1441861  speedup is 865.46
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at /tmp/rsync-2.5.6/main.c(1045)

Is it a bug? Is it me?

Brendon
