I know that a nice list of (English) hyphenation exceptions was published in TUGboat, in quite a few installments. Is it compiled somewhere in one place?

whenever an update is published in tugboat, the complete "list-so-far" is posted to ctan as a pdf file tb0hyf.pdf and the tex source tb0hyf.tex. the most recent update was in november 2010.
taking a cue from egreg, the entire package, hyphenex, is available from ctan and is also part of tex live. the package includes the processing module and the preprocessed list,
ushyphex, as well as the tugboat material.
update: suggestions for additions can be mailed to tugboat@tug.org

for US-english run
kpsewhich ushyphex.tex
for TeXLive => $TEXMF/tex/generic/hyphenex/ushyphex.tex
I don't know if there is also an exception log for GB english.

this isn't the most recent version. tex live 2010 closed before the latest update; for that, you have to go to ctan. – barbara beeton Jul 12 '11 at 19:30

@Barbara: true, but I have TeXLive 2011 installed :-) – user2478 Jul 12 '11 at 20:24

@Herbert, I have copied the output of kpswehich ushyphex.tex in between the brackets of an
\input{}in my preamble, would you say that is the 'correct' way of doing it? – Ingo Oct 24 '13 at 13:51 -
2you do not need the path a
\input{ushyphex.tex}should be enough. – user2478 Oct 24 '13 at 14:10

The CTAN location is

Thanks a lot! I am not at all surprised that I have it somewhere in my texlive installation - but I did not know the filename... – mbork Jul 12 '11 at 21:53

@Stephen: A TeX distribution is MiKTeX or TeXLive – user2478 Sep 12 '11 at 16:34

1@Stephen: since
ushyphex.texis only in tex live, that i can tell, the only useful statement is "it's in tex live". (note, i don't run an up-to-date miktex, so i'm going by the list of locations in miktex'sfiles.csv.) – wasteofspace Sep 27 '13 at 14:24
