I just got around to looking at this..  But I don't really see what
problem it fixes.  Apparently the issue is with --no-hard-links, but
on my system that seems to work fine:

~ $ md in
~ $ touch in/foo
~ $ ln in/foo in/bar
~ $ ls -l in/
total 8
-rw-r--r--  2 ben ben 0 Oct 31 00:18 bar
-rw-r--r--  2 ben ben 0 Oct 31 00:18 foo
~ $ rdiff-backup --no-hard-links in out
~ $ ls -l out
total 16
-rw-r--r--  1 ben ben    0 Oct 31 00:18 bar
-rw-r--r--  1 ben ben    0 Oct 31 00:18 foo
drwx------  3 ben ben 4096 Oct 31 00:19 rdiff-backup-data/

The files are correctly unlinked in the out directory.
