For others, it seemed to work with using '/Path With/Spaces in it/' in the share name. However, realizing how out of date the rsync binary is on Mac OS X, I decided to install a newer version that is, from what I read, far more memory efficient and utilizes the newer rsync protocol to be more efficient on transfers. Installed that in /usr/local/bin/rsync and modified the xfer jobs of those machines to use that path instead. Now I can use the --protect-args (-s) parameter.
