The remove_default_doc attribute should take care of the superfluous
"index.html" entries, but I'm not so sure about the extra Subdirectory
names.  You can't use exclude_urls for this, because it does a case
insensitive match.

On my site, I make use of a few symbolic links for subdirectories, to
give an all-lowercase equivalent to some mixed case names, but I never
use these in URLs on my site, for this very reason.  I only use them to
support links from other sites, where other admins may be a tad sloppy
about getting the case right.  I realise this isn't a workable alternative
for you if you don't maintain control over the whole site you're indexing.
