I'm sure I must be missing something obvious but one of my exclude patterns
isn't matching. I have the exclude patterns:

.mozilla/*/*/Cache/     and
.mozilla/**/Cache/

yet it still transfers files with the names:

mnt/sda/Main/home/anne/.mozilla/anne/ye319egu.slt/Cache/0BC82E77d01
mnt/sda/Main/home/anne/.mozilla/anne/ye319egu.slt/Cache/0BDD5E77d01
mnt/sda/Main/home/anne/.mozilla/anne/ye319egu.slt/Cache/0EF0B314d01

There's no shell expansion going on. Anyone have any other ideas?
