You also might want to create an empty template that matches "Special".
I think I read somewhere that on certain processors that might be more
efficient if you are doing something like:
<xsl:apply-templates select="preceding-sibling::*" />
....
<xsl:template match="Special" />
This way you can add more emply templates in case you want to exclude
other nodes later on. It might be easier to read if you were to come
back to your xslt later on.

I now have a situation where I take

What I want to come out with is:
<RootEle>
<Alphabet>
<A/>
<B/>
<D/>
<Break/>
</Alphabet>
</RootEle>
I've been playing with the solution to my previous problem to see if I
can work with it to solve this one, but I am unable figure out how to
copy all the preceding-siblings and exclude any nodes that match
"Special" at the same time.
To leave "Special" elements out, assuming the context node is your
Break, use
preceding-sibling::*[not(self::Special)]
in XSLT 1.0.
