Comment:

 Confirmed. Taxonomy Queries are not processed when page_for_posts is set;
 As a result, the category exclusion code is never run causing query_posts
 to ~~not be effective~~ not work as expected..

 Attached patch deals with the taxonomy side of things, however Author
 specification and a few other things might also be affected (those in the
 else branch here: [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-
 includes/query.php#L1467 Line 1467 of query.php])

 (note: I havn't tested any side effects of the patch, I'm hoping someone
 who feels like digging into WP_Query will take it and run :))
