This also is an issue that only appears when storing metadata in extended 
attributes. When storing them in the files itself on the second rsync attempt I 
get:

merkaba:~> rsync -a -H --acls -S -P /home/ms2/ /home/ms/               
sending incremental file list

sent 2920748 bytes  received 9094 bytes  177566.18 bytes/sec
total size is 13239183088  speedup is 4518.74

Thus this is probably another testcase for ecryptfs. Rsync twicing and see 
whether the second time rsync still transfers files or not.

I am now feeling much more confident about ecryptfs. I do like when rsync 
behaves this way ;).
