I note that rsync as patched by Apple will segfault every time if you
run as root and try to rsync the top level of an HFS+ volume, if you try
to use the -E extended attribute switch.
It seems they tried to fix this bug in the new security update.
Unfortunately, they introduced another one: Now the --delete flag
doesn't work any more.
Does anyone have a workaround for this? It is a show-stopper for any
backup or sync script that uses rsync.
The error:

BTW, I have already filed a bug with Apple.
