I do.  It only took a couple of minutes to hack into place what I think is
a more expected way of defining backups.  Hackish, yes, but now I have a
paths: option that, if present, overrides $srctree as derived from tree:

client: host.sonic.net
tree: / 
paths: / /boot /var
xdev: 1
index: gzip

exclude:
        /var/log
        /var/spool/mqueue

Gets the job done without much fuss.
