Oh, no it "manually" tries to read ACL information from that directory
with pylibacl.  Here is the relevant code:

try: posix1e.ACL(file=rp.path)
except IOError:
        log.Log("ACLs not supported by filesystem at %s" % (rp.path,), 4)
        self.acls = 0
else: self.acls = 1

since you got the error "ACLs not supported by filesystem at
/Users/muralikv/Desktop", then rdiff_backup tried to run

posix1e.ACL(file="/Users/muralikv/Desktop")

and got an IOError.
