I can confirm this. In tramp-tests.el, tramp-test40-special-characters
is skipped for rsync. I remember I've tried to make it working for a
while, but I failed.

Maybe I try it again, but I cannot promise anything. In case I fail the
second time, we shall document this at least.

Best regards, Michael.
