Hmmm, I've heard of cases where the server BackupPC_dump SEGVs
when the remote (client) rsync sends a duplicate file name in
the file list.  This should not normally happen, but I guess
it can happen if there is corruption on the remote client
file system.

So it could be that some windows file system corruption is
exposing a bug in File::RsyncP (on the server) that causes
the SEGV.  I need to look into that bug.

In the meantime, what happens when you run chkdsk on the
client machine?
