Well, if you *really* want this...

Not built into Bacula, but possible using a dynamically created file 
list. I'd use find to do that, so your fileset would contain - in the 
excluded include section - something like "\\|/path/to/find /path/ 
/path2/ /path3/  ... -size +xM -print"'. If the file names are not 
controlled by you or can contain blanks, you should use '... -print0 | 
script_to_quote_filenames'. The script could be something like 'xargs 
-0 -I '#' /bin/echo '"#"'' but you better test that yourself... and I 
really hope you never encounter file names with a newline in them... 
quoting characters also can be fun...

Or, to keep quoting simpler, use a script like

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/find /path/ /path2/ /path3/  ... -size +xM -print0 | sed -e 
's/"/\\"/' | xargs -0 -I '#' /bin/echo '"#"'

which you reference in the fileset.
