Now that you mention it, there isn't really a way to do this. You could write a shell script that did it though. Essentially it would uncompress the package from /var/cache/pacman/pkg/$pkgname-$pkgver-$pkgrel.pkg.tar.gz into a temp dir and start comparing md5s (or sha1s), ignoring files that are marked backup (or maybe not and just mentioning they're marked as backup).
