I'm using that already I'm afraid. I ran into the protocol issue some 
take back.

But you gave me the clue I needed :) Turns out rsync is using the local 
path to the rsync binary as the remote path for the rsync binary. In my 
case the local path is now  /pkg/local/bin/rsync but I need 
/usr/bin/rsync remotely. Setting the --rsync-path option fixed it.

Thanks,
David
