I don't know how to help you with GCC not compiling the header file, but 
since you are new to linux, maybe you should try to install rdiff-backup 
from another repository. I'm not familliar with Xandros, so these may 
not be accurate or even not work.
You should edit your file "/etc/apt/sources.list". Something like
"sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" should work

add the following line :
deb http://www.backports.org/debian etch-backports main contrib non-free

Save and exit. Now, you can install rdiff-backup from this repository, 
like this :
apt-get -t etch-backports install rdiff-backup

I hope it will help you.
