Well, it looks like fakechroot is the culprit, fwiw.  If I take your
configs and remove the fakechroot bit from the serverargs line:

	server_args     = -i /library/xs-rsync/state/rsyncd.all --
/usr/bin/rsync --daemon --config /etc/xs-rsyncd.conf

It works fine.

I dunno anything much about fakechroot, though.
