I figured that, any idea when this will be changed?  3.2??  I would guess that 80%+ of backuppc users would see some benefit to the improved filelist transfers and memory use improvements.

I have rsync 3 on my Linux client machines and it works just fine, but
BackupPC isn't using any rsync 3 specific features AFAIK. Rsync and
BackupPC's File::RsyncP module negotiate a protocol version and
File::RsyncP doesn't support the latest versions of the rsync protocol
yet.
