Don't know about your bad backup, but in your DLE you should not
have both the include and THAT exclude.  I.e., the include will
automatically drop any toplevel dir that does not match "./0*".

I think the only valid exclude usage would be for things under
the 0* directories.  For example 'exclude "./0*/tmp"'.  Though
I must admit I've never tried that combination.
