BackupPC 3.1.0 on CentOS 5.2

Backups of a single host are aborting after lots of errors like

sys/block/hdc/capability: md4 doesn't match: will retry in phase 1; file removed
Remote[1]: rsync: read errors mapping "/sys/block/hdc/capability": No
data available (61)
sys/block/hdc/dev: md4 doesn't match: will retry in phase 1; file removed
Remote[1]: rsync: read errors mapping "/sys/block/hdc/dev": No data
available (61)
[ skipped 4 lines ]
sys/block/hdc/queue/iosched/back_seek_max: md4 doesn't match: will
retry in phase 1; file removed
Remote[1]: rsync: read errors mapping
"/sys/block/hdc/queue/iosched/back_seek_max": No data available (61)
sys/block/hdc/queue/iosched/back_seek_penalty: md4 doesn't match: will
retry in phase

Always referencing files under /sys

My site-wide config.pl includes

    $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/proc', '/sys'];

My error log for this host shows:

Sent exclude: /proc

Why didn't /sys get excluded, as per the configuration?   There is no
overriding   $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} directive in the per-host
config file.

I've got rsync 3.0.3 (protocol version 30) on both ends.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Aleksey
