You are using the test tarball or latest svn trunk right ? And you did do a 
make install after you built ? One of the earlier config files had an error 
which was not excluding the dot files and directories - but that was fixed 
later. I have a feeling that somehow the old file is still in effect in your 
case. Could you do a fresh make install, remove/move your current config and 
then check ?
$ beagle-config FilesQueryable ExcludePattern
  - ExcludePattern : (Exclude files matching these patters)
    Parameters: [Pattern]
    Values:
        - [.*]
        - [*~]
        - [#*#]
 ...

The first one should be there...
