manpage says:
exclude [ list | file ][[optional][append][ string ]+]
Default: file. Exclude is the opposite of include and specifies files
that will be excluded from the backup. The format of the exclude
expressions depends on the application, and some applications do not
support excluding files at all.
...
although I always skip that default "file" option (and recommend to test
that)
another thought (maybe you mentioned it, it's late here and I haven't
scanned the whole thread): do you use GNUTAR as dump program (parameter
"program" in global dumptype or so)?
If you didn't specify the default is DUMP and not GNUTAR (and the
include parameter might do completely other things)
