Several things

The ~/.AIPSRC file should have a line like

INSTALL_FROM_NET = YES

The $SYSLOCAL area should contain a 0-byte file named

RSYNC.ME

The $LOAD area should have dates that are different - either much
older than your compiled installation if our dates were retained or
all the same and more recent than your compiled installation.
