Jeremy, The Finder color label information works just fine for me. What version of Mac OS X are you using? 10.4 is the first one that supported extended attributes. Before 10.3, color labels might have been stored in some other manner. Also, try creating a test folder with a single file and giving it a color label. Then backup the folder with rdiff-backup but use "-v8" or "-v9" as an option to increase the logging. Send us the log file if the color label is not backed-up and maybe we can see what's wrong.
