I have a number of XFS boxes and they all use rsync in one way or the other 
in 15,30 or 6 hour intervals and all goes well. I suspect broken hardware. 
It can sometimes be very subtle and only be caused by certain access 
patterns or drivers.

Can you try checking out a XFS CVS tree? I believe you said you were using 
the 1.1 release.
I have good results with the 2.4.19-rc3-xfs CVS tree on a number of 
different systems and it works really well. Can you check if this helps for 
you?

Cheers
