This is what we do here (NBU 6.0MP4);  We use the same on both Unix and
Windows clients, and it seems to work well.  On the systems where multiple
streams are allowed, NBU seems to do the right thing with generating a
new stream for each Unix mount-point, etc.

To separate out application or database filesystems which need special
treatment, we place policy-specific "exclude" files on the relevant clients,
and add separate policies to handle the special data.
