There are some packages that will turn off/on the "backup" bit. Package
Manager by ICS that is part of NewtsCase will do it. If you have that
backup bit off, it won't be included in any backups when you "backup
packages" on a card or when you backup using NCU (even a full backup).

It really speeds up backups if you don't need them, or if you have problems
and just want the DATA.
