how to exclude custom shared precompiled headers folder from Time Machine backups?

Xcode nicely adds all it's "build" directories to the exclude list of Time Machine (at least in reasonably recent versions), so that I don't have to bother excluding the build directories manually...

However, for some projects, we have redirected the shared precompiled headers folder to a project-relative location by defining the SHARED_PRECOMPS_DIR build setting in a shared build configuration file. Since Xcode creates the shared precompiled header folder - shouldn't it also make sure it's excluded from Time Machine backups?

Since it's not doing so at the moment - is there a supported way of automatically adding them (e.g. using a shell script) to the list of excluded or skipped folders? I assume I can change the Time Machine prefs file, but I'd just like to check whether there is a supported mechanism of adding exclude/skip folders?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
