Comment(by mtekk):

 Disregard my last comment, I found the newish exclude_tree option (codex
 does not have it documented yet). The other thing is, if hierarchical is
 set to true, exclude should work the same as exclude_tree, however the
 code seems to not work (this is in the function wp_list_categories). Now,
 the only bug in my updated patch is that the hide_empty setting is over
 riding the exclude_tree option (the empty children of an excluded category
 still end up in the list, a problem is in get_terms I believe).
