It appears that there is an exclude bug when dealing with --relative
while copying an absolute path.  The attached patch fixes this.  This is
big enough that 2.6.8 will appear shortly, but until then, this one-line
fix will take care of the problem.  I've also added a new test to the
testsuite that will catch a problem such as this in the future.

Thanks for the report,
