This look okay to me but two questions:
1. Do any of the usage resources need to be updated?
2. Does this introduce an inconsistency in the jmod tool in that
--hash-modules takes a regex whereas --exclude takes a pattern that is a
glob (at least by default, it could be a regex too if prefixed with
"regex:").
