"Bad address" is a serious error message (accessing an invalid memory
address) and, even *if* they are due to the german umlauts, it's probably
worth to find out what's causing it.

Nope. These are expected errors due to trying to call socket functions
on non-socket file descriptors. I have no idea what rsync is trying
to accomplish there, but it's unlikely that this has something to do
with the "Too many open files" problem.

Grmpf. I hate having to build an application for debugging first.
Anyway, I guess I'll try next week.

It's really not that much. You can skip the test and install steps
and just copy over the DLL and the .DBG file to /bin and use that
instead of the original one. Only, for debugging it makes sense to build
with CFLAGS=-g.

What pie? I only know apple pie, sorry. And I never saw it spelled
