Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
This is interesting and I appreciate your investigation! I wonder though if there's a third outcome here - that it's not a bug because the glibc implementation of lchmod() requires /proc to be mounted, and if you don't have /proc mounted then by that definition you have a broken system and lchmod() is not expected to work, so rsync won't work, as a design decision of upstream glibc.
I'm not claiming that this is the case, just that it's another case to consider.
