rsync out of memory 2.6.8-rc2

[Klaus Dittrich]

rsync-2.6.2 of a large disc using 2.6.8-rc2 (I also tried 2.6.7-bk14)
stops with "kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process xxxx" messages
during filelist gathering.

When this happens only 1.4 GB out of 2 GB RAM and no swap is used.

No problems with kernel 2.6.7.
(Peak RAM usage during filelist gathering was 1.8 GB, no swap)
