Details:

After installing python-2.4, librsync-0.9.6, and rdiff-backup-0.13.6 on
Tiger, the following error occurs on any backup or restore:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/sw/bin/rdiff-backup", line 23, in ?
    rdiff_backup.Main.Main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 280, in

    take_action(rps)
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 250, in

    elif action == "backup": Backup(rps[0], rps[1])
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 291, in

    dest_fsa = rpout.conn.fs_abilities.get_fsabilities_readwrite(
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/fs_abilities.py", line

    return FSAbilities(desc_string).init_readwrite(
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/fs_abilities.py", line

    if override_chars_to_quote is None: self.set_chars_to_quote(subdir)

    if supports_unusual_chars(): self.chars_to_quote = "A-Z;"
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/fs_abilities.py", line
245, in supports_unusual_chars
    rp = subdir.append(filename)
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 907, in

    return self.__class__(self.conn, self.base, self.index + (ext,))
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 666, in
__init__
    else: self.setdata()
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 691, in
setdata
    self.data = self.conn.C.make_file_dict(self.path)
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument:
'NSF-backup/rdiff-backup-data/rdiff-backup.tmp.2/\xaf'

It seems that make_file_dict does not like chr(175), as specified in
supports_unusual_chars. Changing this function to return 0 fixes the problem
and allows rdiff-backup to work without any apparent problems on Tiger.
