From: Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
Subject: [PATCH] Handle the rsync v3 -e option for protocol information

As of rsync 3, rsync reused the -e option to pass protocol information
from the client to the server.  We therefore cannot reject all -e
options to rsync, only ones not sent with --server or containing
something other than protocol information as an argument.

Also scan the rsync command line for any --rsh option and reject it as
well.  This replaces and improves the upstream strategy for rejecting
that command-line option, taking advantage of the parsing added to
check the -e option.

Based on work by Robert Hardy.

Debian Bug#471803
