Stable NTFS-3G (not the Advanced one which has full user ownership, permission, ACL, etc handling) supports only the User namespace EAs. ACLs are using EAs in the System namespace. This is why --no-acls works.
And it is interesting that rdiff-backup didn't detect the need for -- no-acls automatically, but that is because the ACL test is read-only. It simply requests the ACL from the filesystem, and apparently that didn't raise an IOError when the underlying FS was NTFS-3G 2009.2.1.
--no-eas failing is somehow unexpected from rdiff-backup unless it means "all EAs except ACLs", i.e. "ignore all EAs except ACL EAs".
Yes, that is what it means. It treats non-ACL EAs as separate from ACL EAs.
