I tested it with '*svn*' and on cygwin grep which is:
grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1
and it worked.
Strangely enough if I put '*.svn*' it didn't work.

Hi Bob,
That doesn't seem to work either. I executed the following:
cd ~/.vim
grep -Rli --exclude=\*syntax\* maintainer .
and the results included files such as
./syntax/Decho.vim
I also tried variations including
--exclude=syntax
--exclude=*syntax*
--exclude='*syntax*'
'--exclude=*syntax*'
all with the same results.
Regards,
Gary
