Actually, I am reproducing your bug exactly as you entered
it.
And it is very sensitive to options.
When I take out the $PWD it works.
First your case:
/tmp> rsync -aHvv --compare-dest=$PWD/dstlt/. $PWD/srclt/. $PWD/baklt/.
|& tee testlt.log
sending incremental file list
delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file
./
a is uptodate
d is uptodate
b
a => b
/tmp> ll -i srclt dstlt baklt
baklt:
total 8
17305770 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
17305770 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 b
dstlt:
total 8
8474888 -rw-rw-r-- 1 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
8474896 -rw-rw-r-- 1 2 Apr 5 15:46 d
srclt:
total 16
8866 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
8866 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 b
8867 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 c
8867 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 d

Then w/o $PWD:
/tmp> rsync -aHvv --compare-dest=dstlt/. srclt/. baklt/. |& tee testlt.log
sending incremental file list
--compare-dest arg does not exist: dstlt/.
delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file
./
b
d
a => b
c => d
/tmp> ll -i srclt dstlt baklt
baklt:
total 16
17305770 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
17305770 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 b
17305782 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 c
17305782 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 d
dstlt:
total 8
8474888 -rw-rw-r-- 1 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
8474896 -rw-rw-r-- 1 2 Apr 5 15:46 d
srclt:
total 16
8866 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 a
8866 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 b
8867 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 c
8867 -rw-rw-r-- 2 2 Apr 5 15:46 d
--------------
However, if "dstl" is a different file system, it works:
> rsync -aHv --compare-dest=~/dstlt/. $PWD/srclt/. $PWD/baklt/. |& tee
testlt.log
sending incremental file list
--compare-dest arg does not exist: ~/dstlt/.
./
b
d
a => b
c => d
In my usage both the compare-dest & baklt were 'technically'
different file systems (though the compare-dest was a snap
shot).
-----------
ARG: if baklt is on a different FS, but src+dst are same:
/tmp> rsync -aHv --compare-dest=$PWD/dstlt/. $PWD/srclt/. ~/baklt/. |&
tee testlt.log
sending incremental file list
./
b
a => b
/tmp> ll -i srclt dstlt ~/baklt

Ok... something's screwy here. But no hangs.
Like I said in my 1st response, if some hard links
were missing in the bak directory, I really would be
unlikely to notice, as I didn't even try to check
them (way too many files), but I never got a hang --
and that's the part I'm thinking might be nfs
related, since I've seen several issues with nfs not
working the same way as a local fs.
I usually use smbfs -- in my usage, it's faster and I
usually have fewer compatibility problems.
(faster meaning ~ Reads~162MB/s, W~220MB/s,
though i've seen explorer hit over 400MB/s).
(using a 10Gb link).
But the above testing shows some unexplained behaviors
out of rsync that sure look like a bug.
Good test case!
:-)
