In parser.c it looks like XMLClassAttributes are evaluated after testing 
IgnoreMetaTags, so you can't configure it the way you have above. I.e., the 
parser checks if it should ignore a given tag based on the tag name, before it 
ever gets to the attributes.

That's probably a bug in the parser logic.

Anyway, an alternate solution would be just to wrap that particular div in the 
noindex comments:

  <!-- noindex -->
  <div id="inlnb">
  ....
  </div>
  <!-- index -->
