It's a bug in File-RsyncP.pm. You can fix it by removing the
"=s" in this line in File/RsyncP.pm:
"cvs-exclude|C=s", sub { optExclude($rs, @_); },
ie:
"cvs-exclude|C", sub { optExclude($rs, @_); },
You can make this change on the File-RsyncP package source
and re-install, or manually change File/RsyncP.pm in the
installed location (do perl -V to see where).
Alternatively, the bug causes the next exclude to be ignored,
so another work around is:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'home' => ['/tmp', '/tmp'],
};
