Not by me - though I did find this patch from IBM back in 2008, but I 
can't get it to build against any version 3.0.x of rsync (I didn't go 
further back), and there was no follow up on the list that I can see 
(apart from one immediate response attempting to initiate dialogue).

I'm currently entertaining doing:

dsmc incr -> dsmc restore!
