Yes, that should be an adequate workaround.

It would be even better if rdiff-backup would automatically turn on the  
no-quoting behavior if the case sensitivity of the source and  
destination file systems were the same. This would solve the issue for  
all file systems that exhibit this problem, not just Mac OS X's HFS+,  
and it is what I was trying to accomplish with the patch.
