There's obviously something weird going on but I'm afraid I
don't have any insights. The only thing I can suggest which
it doesn't look like you've tried yet is to use the full path
in the exclusion e.g. /x"\\El-Diablo\My_Documents\DEP.DUS".
Maybe Xxcopy will find that and exclude it properly.

Probably not a solution but you could also try mapping a drive
to the share to see whether that makes any difference (because
this changes the base path, adjust your exclusions accordingly).

net share n: \\El-Diablo\My_Documents
xxcopy n:\ c:\test\ /xDEP.DUS
