this is the problem: your remote end outputs 'bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (de)', which it mustn't. Apart from localized root error messages being a real pain for the administrator of the machine (but that's just my opinion), BackupPC rsync backups need a data stream free of extraneous output. You need to be able to run ssh -q -x -l root sarpc04.sar.de /bin/true (as backuppc user on the BackupPC server) without getting *any* output. For tar backups, the locale settings would matter, for rsync backups I don't believe they do. They just need to be correct so you don't get any warning messages (maybe you need to use 'de_DE' instead of 'de' somewhere?). You probably need to check the bash startup files for root and the global ones or basically anything you might have changed to set the locale to 'de'. Hope that helps.
