I don't really understand exclude, but instead of EXCLUDE... I would do

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "invoice_definitions-unique-default" 
  ON invoice_definitions(customer_id) WHERE is_default;

Which would create a smaller (and probably faster) BTREE index 
containing only the rows with is_default true.

There seems to be no way to create this in the create-table 
command. (using 8.4 here)
