No, that works perfectly fine.
Quick list:
# _T_ake (don't ignore) entries below these directories
fsvs ignore 't/etc/**' 't/var/cache/**' 't/var/lib/**'
# Ignore the rest
fsvs ignore './**'
# Actually get to these starting points - else
# they'd be ignored just like everything else
fsvs add /etc /var/cache /var/lib
and you should be fine.
Hope that works and helps!
Regards,
Phil

Versioning your /etc, /home or even your whole installation?
Try fsvs (fsvs.tigris.org)!
