 Thanks for the link!  After a bit of playing, I found my sources tarball!

Based upon the rsync-3.0.4-1.cygwin.patch, it doesn't look like any
sources needed to be changed, so I can troubleshoot with the sources
straight from git.  But I just discovered this version is 10 years old! 
This is very helpful though, thank you.

Daniel
