Do you really need an object specification? A null object specification causes an incremental backup to back up all local file systems except /tmp, which is usually the desired behavior. If you need to exclude some file systems I would be inclined to put exclude.fs statements in the include/exclude file rather than specify a list of file systems to be backed up. In addition to avoiding problems with the length of the object list, using exclude.fs eliminates the risk of not backing up a new file system if you forget to modify the object list.
