perhaps a corrupt attrib file, as in: one end of the connection is expecting
[much] more data than the other end sends. This would seem to fit in with your
error message from newer rsync versions as well as the fact that it only
happens for one host. Have you tried forcing a full backup for that host?

Whenever I revisit this thread, I immediately think "BackupPC fuse module?",
but I haven't used it myself yet, so I can't give you any detail. But it might
well be something to look into - providing it fits into the "big picture" you
haven't given ;-).

Holger
