Ben Franksen <ben.franksen at online.de> added the comment:

We cannot distinguish between files and directories in a boring 
regexp, since trailing slashes are removed when we convert to the 
internal representation.

The workaround is to temporarily remove that regexp from the 
boringfile, add -r everything, then restore the boringfile. This 
works because a file that is already in the repo is never considered 
boring.
