I need to do an rdiff-backup, and exclude files that match the pattern :

um, does
rdiff-backup --exclude-regexp 'core\.[0123456789]*' source target
do it for you?
So I've tried your suggested pattern, and it still backs up core.[0-9]*
files, it didn't seem to work for me.
This works for me in a simple test:
rdiff-backup --exclude-regexp 'core\.[0-9]*'
not sure why it doesn't work on your end.
