[rdiff-backup-users] Spaces in file names

I recently found rdiff-backup and it does exactly what I need it to. One
problem, however, my Documents directory has directories with spaces in
their file names. I want to exclude some of these directories from backup.
It all works fine if I run it from the command line and escape out the
space (rdiff-backup --exclude ./Documents/Test\ dir/ ./Douments ./test).
Problem is when I try to add that to a list and use
--exclude-globbing-filelist instead of the exclude statement, I get this:

Fatal Error: Fatal Error: The file specification
    './Documents/Test\ dir/'
cannot match any files in the base directory
    'Documents'

Using the full paths in the file list doesn't help either.

Any help? Thanks.
