From the rsync man page:
-C, --cvs-exclude auto ignore files in the same
way CVS does
fro the cvs man page:
Use -I name to ignore files whose names match name
(in your working directory) during the update. You
can specify -I more than once on the command line to
specify several files to ignore. By default, update
ignores files whose names match certain patterns; for
an up to date list of ignored file names, see the
Cederqvist manual (as described in the SEE ALSO sec�
tion of this manpage).
I don't happen to have the Cederqvist manual handy, but I'll bet that it
excludes *.a and *.so files.
