Have you been able to use any other version of 1.1?

I've never tried. If I find some time, I'll try and do some regressions against old versions, though I still find it interesting that 1.0 works fine.

Can you try a very simple backup, such as:

$ mkdir test
$ touch test/file
$ rdiff-backup test test.bak

Does that work?

Yes, that worked fine.

Also, is there anything special about /Volumes/mcneal/ or the way it's
mounted?

Not from what I can tell, but playing around, I was able to run the same command, against the same file store, just mounted over SMB. Also, it looks like I can run the same command, against a different file store that's mounted via AFP. I'll keep poking around and let you know if I find anything.

One a side note, what's the "best practice" for backing up mac clients, mounting the file system, or backing up over ssh?

Thanks for your help
