Hi All,

First of all, I *love* rdiff-backup and it was just the tool I was
looking for.  I needed features in 0.7.2 but found that I couldn't
backup remotely -- if I ran rdiff-backup --server, I'd get the following
traceback:

$ ./rdiff-backup --server
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./rdiff-backup", line 5717, in ?
    Globals.Main.Main()
  File "./rdiff-backup", line 5462, in Main
    self.misc_setup(rps)
  File "./rdiff-backup", line 5431, in misc_setup
    rps[0].conn.Globals.set_select(1, rps[0], self.select_opts)
IndexError: list index out of range

I applied a simple fix that worked for me, but someone like Ben should
verify that it doesn't cause any unwanted side-effects.  I'm attaching
the patch to this email.  (It's a simple two-liner)

Best Regards,
