Unfortunately rsync implements that on the receiving side (ie: server),
and File::RsyncP doesn't implement that option.

It wouldn't be too hard to add, but all my development focus is on 4.x.
In 4.x since I'm using essentially a native rsync on the server side,
almost all the rsync options will work.
