I haven't; however, last time I was involved with Exchange (admittedly a
couple of years ago) MS were quite insistent that only backup products
specifically designed for Exchange should be used to back it up. If
you're going to use rdiff, I'd use NTbackup to create the backups first.
Also, I would emphatically NOT rely on diff backups (this is a comment
on Exchange databases, not the abilities of rdiff-backup).
