Huh, I found many bad logical structured expressions, that mean bugs (in IF/THEN) + strange for me checks like - if lights has no objects in their Inc/Exc list then the script will not add anything, and if they have - the script will overwrite existing instead of just to append new one. The functions at the begining are Ok, so just keep working on ... ;)

[EDIT] Your script seems to me complicated (to edit it quickly) so I just wrote right now my version: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/quick-includeexclude-lights
I hope this help.
