Here fileset rules I just finished putting
together.  One is for W2K8 etc (NT kernel 6.x)
and the other is for WXP etc (NT kernel 5.x).

Registry backup files are excluded because the
in-place registry hives are guaranteed to be
consistent by the VSS "Registry Writer" service
(I have verfied this is true) per

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa384595(v=vs.85).aspx

To the extent a registry roll-back is needed,
successive generations of the entire system
image will IMO suffice.
