That did the trick.  I hadn't even considered that the different regex
blobbing would affect it.  You da man.

And for completeness since Torsten commented, it appears to be case
insensitive in that regard as I tried both upper and lower case.  To be
fair, the documentation is unclear on that point and if you look at the
code, it's comparing lowercase so I'm guessing there is a call somewhere
that lowcases the entry.
