The problem is that Bacula walks down the tree of directories looking for
matching include/exclude patterns. When it finds an excluded directory, it
doesn't look any deeper in that directory. Now /u02 doesn't match any of the
above, so it stops the walk before /u02/oraback is found.
BTW, I don't think you need \ before / in a regex.
