My advice would be to try doing a restore using tar and netcat, but only
because that's what I do and it works reliably for me. 

This would at least allow you to narrow it down to a problem with rsync, or
BackupPC itself.

1. set a netcat process listening and piping to tar; something like:
   nc -l -p 8888|tar xzvp -C /path/to/target/dir

2. on the backuppc server, use BackupPC_tarCreate to build a tarball of
the backup you want, pipe that through gzip, then pipe it to netcat in
order to send it across the wire
   /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h <hostname> -n -1 -s / 
/|gzip| nc 192.168.123.123 8888

Run /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate without any arguments to get
a (entirely too brief) help message.

If it's a Windows box you're restoring to, the above will still work, you'll
just need the cygwin tools installed.
