I've got a collection of output directories which are named in a manner
similar to what follows:

 /u/foo/OUTPUT/
 /u/foo/OUTPUT_1/
 /u/foo/OUTPUT_2/
 /u/foo/OUTPUT_KF/
 /vv/bar/OUTPUT_1/
 /vv/OUTPUT_1/

I want to exclude these directories and all the files in their
subdirectories from backups.  What I want to be able to do is something
which would behave like the following exclude directive:

 exclude /.../OUTPUT*/.../*

But the Unix client guide says for the `*' and `?' wildcards, "Use it in
the file name only; do not use it in a directory name."   So how do I get
around these output directory names when they may have arbitrary sufixes?
