Heh...
It's a bit hard to trace:

For me this means that 1 out of 1M invocations crashes.
If anybody can make a testcase for it, I can try to fix it.
I only do:
csync2 -h <up to 20 files>, csync2 -l 1000 -B -A -c -v and csync2 -l 1000 -B -A -u -v
The first question is: which of these variants crashes.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
