Hmm.  I would suggest that you send the contents of your exclude file, a 
recursive listing of the directory in question (find /home/rj -ls), and 
the verbose duplicity output.  But maybe you don't want to publicly reveal 
your filenames.

Can you reproduce this in a small test case, by just making a scratch 
directory with a few subdirectories and files, creating a corresponding 
exclude file, and running duplicity on it?  If you get the same behavior, 
then send the relevant information for the test case.  (And if you don't, 
maybe inspecting the difference between the test case and the real backup 
will reveal something.)
