Comment 16 for bug 349072

Can't seem to get it right. I've used these two patches, taken from the provided commit message.

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/rdiff-backup/rdiff_backup/Main.py?r1=1.127.2.2&r2=1.127.2.3&pathrev=r1-2&root=rdiff-backup&view=patch
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/rdiff-backup/rdiff_backup/SetConnections.py?r1=1.18.2.2&r2=1.18.2.3&pathrev=r1-2&root=rdiff-backup&view=patch

They apply nicely, but somehow seems to break --test-server completely. This is what I get

andreas@hawat:~$ rdiff-backup --test-server <email address hidden>::dest

I've tried the patches on both rdiff-backup 1.2.7 and on rdiff-backup 1.2.8 I've been using the same (patched) version of rdiff-backup on both sides.
