t9112-fetch-rsync.sh breaks if cogito is located in a directory containing e.g. spaces. The test uses its own rsync replacement (localrsync) and supplies it to cg-fetch with full patch. cg-fetch doesn't quote rsync sufficiently to prevent interpreting the path to localrsync by the shell.

This bug is unlikely to be a problem in real life, but it's important to have cogito tests run properly in directories with unusual names, since it allows to catch a number of more serious problems.
