rsync2.6.3 from 10.4.8:
a file with an ACL, copied with rsync local to local (from one volume
to another), does not get its unix permissions copied. For instance a
755 file is copied with 600 permissions.
Conversely rsync 2.6.9, that does not support resource forks yet,
does behave properly.
I have not tested with different ACLs, but it would be strange if the
result was dependent on their content. If this issue has not been
resolved in recent developments I will file a bug.
[Since it is known that rsync 2.6.3 crashes when both ACLs and rsrc
exist for a file, at the current state of affairs I would say that it
is better to ignore resource forks and use rsync 2.6.9...]
