Check out the --relative (-R) option in the man page. That would let
you do something like this:
rsync -avR `cat /path/file-list` dest:/
Or, the CVS version of rsync which has the --files-from option:
rsync -av --files-from=/path/file-list / dest:/
(Note that the --files-from option implies --relative.)
