The filter based on metadata won't work in your case because the error is happening when the file is loaded, not when it's deciding which of the loaded examples to run. So your original suggestion, that it should be handled at the command line, is a better direction. I'd recommend that you submit an issue to rspec-core explaining specifically that there is a file that you don't even want loaded, so you'd like an explicit exclusion mechanism.
