If you have installed the OS X Development package, you can use the
original packages of librsync and rdiff-backup.
I downloaded and installed them without any problems.

For librsync it's:
>./configure
>make install

For rdiff-backup as root it's:
>./setup.py clean build install

Since rdiff-backup and its man-page aren't in the path i additionally
entered:
>ln -s
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/bin/rdiff-backup
/usr/local/bin/rdiff-backup
>ln -s
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/share/man/man1/rdiff-backup.1
/usr/local/share/man/man1/rdiff-backup.1
