	I would suggest to use the  --exclude-from=FILE option.

	I use it with 'tar' and 'diff' (man tar, diff --help). 

	I use it with tar to package kde source to take home.
	I use it with 'diff -u -r -N' to make patch to the linux kernel. (which
is also a pain to re-compile every time you make a patch)

	Here is my package.ex : 

-----------------
*.o
*.moc*
*.lo
*.la
*.a
.deps
.libs
Makefile
Makefile.in
examples
