I don't have any help for the solution of your uid problem, but try upgrading to a recent rsync version.
1) Download and Install XCode if not already done 2) Download sources from rsync server 3) unzip 4) open a Terminal on the rsync sources folder 5) run "./configure && make" 6) try using the fresh compiled rsync instead of built-in one. Personally, I dislike Apple version of rsync because of the extended resources patch they made isn't compatible with the one further adopted by rsync. So, to have multiplatform extended attributes functionality you should replace Apple's rsync by a new version. As my main interest in rsync is to run it over any OS (I run it fine in OS X >= 10.4, Windows XP/2003, linux, freebsd). Hope this help you to find a solution.
