I suspect this has something to do with the hack in function
Copy.tryCopyMovedFile.  At least, someone synchronizing with
a Windows machine reported that the assertion failure happened
to him only when xferbycopying was set to true.  I suspect that
some Windows ssh servers merges stderr and stdout.  As under
Windows some information gets written on stderr when xferbycopying
is true, the client receive a corrupted stream of data.

Does this fit the other bug reports?
