I've done some rough hacks to the 1.2.5 source to try and
test the \\?\C:\etc.
I've found that
>>> os.mkdir(u"\\\\?\\c:\\backups\\dir"
Works fine, but
>>> os.mkdir(u"\\\\?\\c:\\backups/dir"
does not.
Unfortunately, the latter is what is produced when rdiff-backup adds a
directory to the current path. Using os.path.join(existing_path,
new_dir) will add the separator specific to the host operating system.
I'm familiarizing myself with the rdiff-backup codebase, so I'm hoping
it won't be too long before I can figure out where to make the needed
changes.
Perhaps someone reading this could point me in the right direction?

so, \\?\C:\Temp\ works, but \\?\C:\Temp fails. WTF?
And a followup, almost as a note, if we change to unicode, then it
works...

Gah.

I don't know if it helps, but you can convert mixed paths like that
this way:
>>> os.sep.join(u"\\\\?\\c:\\backups/dir".split('/'))
u'\\\\?\\c:\\backups\\dir'
