I believe there is something else happening here, such as another
PAGEINCLUDE/PAGEEXCLUDE, perhaps. Analog knows the difference between a
directory and a filename. So it shouldn't confuse the above as a file
ending in ".coname/images/conamehome_store.swf".

This points again to a problem with your PAGEINCLUDE definition. You
need to include, explicitly, those pages without extensions that you
want included as pages:
PAGEINCLUDE /conamehomepage
Or, perhaps, even this, depending on what similar files you have:
PAGEINCLUDE /*homepage

These are all excluded by default, so unless you have a PAGEINCLUDE *
command somewhere, the above PAGEEXCLUDE is redundant.
