rsbackup (https://github.com/ewxrjk/rsbackup) uses ssh <host> true to check that the host in question is reachable. I like to configure my backed-up hosts to force the backup system to go via rrsync, but I always have to add a local tweak to allow SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND=true to work. I think this would be safe enough to include in rrsync.
