same result, below:

I'm starting to wonder. I've had success with rdiff-backup on two other
servers, but this one is a pain in the !ss.
Could it be making a difference that I'm running a AMD 64bit cpu? I'm
also running two sata drives as raid1 with the built in software raid.
Could that mean anything?

"strace", and how would I be able to use to track down this segfault
problem?
strace follows a program and tracks down system calls etc. Its sometimes
useful, though generates a massive output for most things. If its
install simply doing 'strace command' will give you an idea.
Anyway, its probably not going to help you that much - its output is
pretty confusing.
can you try backing up to and from the same filesystem - ie try
rdiff-backup -v7 /home /tmp/home-backup
