Upgrade librsync to 0.9.7
There is a documented problem with large files over 2Gigs in size with
versions earlier than this.

Hi, I'm new to the list and I tried searching the archive for this

scanning through the archive a bit, too, but didn't see anything.
Sorry if it is a well covered topic. I've been trying to get
rdiff-backup-0.13.4 working for some extremely large files (25 to
100Gig) backing up from Windows 2000 with latest cygwin to a Linux
machine, running the command from the Linux machine. The first
backup goes fine, but when running a second time on any files that
have changed, I keep getting a librsync error 107. I read the
librsync.h file and it has a comment for error 107 as
RS_INTERNAL_ERROR = 107, /**< Probably a library bug. */. I
compiled both librsync and rdiff-backup myself on cygwin. I also
noticed that there is no longer a --windows-mode option in 0.13.4, or
at least it didn't work for me. Is there some other option that
replicates this behaviour? Another thing is that these backups take
an extremely long time, 20+ hours. Does that seem right?
