Rsync access through NAT?

[jeramy b smith]

We had problems serving rsyncs with 2.4 also. Using 2.4 and an rsync built
against 2.2 headers, we would get hung rsync processes that a stack trace
revealed were hung in a newselect (Paulus already knows this bit).

If rsync was built against 2.4 headers it would hang on the first hung
process and then refuse connections.
