If you really want to exclude on a specific file or pattern by name--say, all *.vim EXCEPT a*.vim--you could check expand("<afile>") in an if condition. (The Stack Overflow link talks mostly about filetypes, not the actual name of the file.)

au SomeCondition *.vim if (expand("<afile>")) != "abcd.vim" | doStuff | endif

Hope this helps,
