 From what i've learned from the manual the "Exclude = yes " expression 
in the body of the "options" Part just determines weather eventually 
given wildcards like "wilddir=\xxx\*yy" found in the defined fileset are 
to be included (default;  no "Exclude = no" requiered) or excluded.

so here's one of my standard windows-filesets, the "options" part 
matches mostly all windows-server-disks, the "Exclude" part is 
machine-specific:

FileSet {
  Name = "someWindowsServer"
  Enable VSS = yes
  Include {
    options {
      compression = GZIP
      ignore case = yes
      signature = MD5
      exclude = yes
      wilddir = "*/temp"
      wilddir = "*/recycler"
      wilddir = "*/system volume information"
      wilddir = "*/tmp"
    }
    File = "C:/"
  }
  Exclude {
    File = "C:/Programme/Bacula/working"
    File = "C:/pagefile.sys"
   }
}

So from my point of view your initial backup should have backuped the 
whole path you specified.
Why bacula doesn't consider the removement of the "Exclude" expression 
as a fileset change is beyond my knowledge.
