Have you ruled out the other causes of that error?  For instance:

That seems rather unlikely for such an old and stable tool as rsync, and 
especially for two versions with the same major version number.  If you’d said 
rsync 2 and 3 or we were talking about a tool that still hadn’t hit 1.0 yet, 
I’d believe the protocol was still in flux, but rsync is 22 years old now.

On the other hand, 3.0.6 is nine years old now, so maybe.

You haven’t needed "-e ssh” since rsync 2.6.0, which made it the default.  It 
was released in 2004.

Rsync won’t create multiple levels of directories on the target.  It will only 
create up to one level of missing directories.  Try this:

    $ ssh x.htt-consult.com 'mkdir -p 
/media/backup/homebase/var/flexshare/shares/'

Then retry the rsync.
