[wp-testers] Redirection problem with tags ending in 'p'

[DD32]

http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8098
I was looking down the same line, But my patch wasnt going to work quite

It needs to be tied to either the start of the string, or to &, And i'm  
not quite sure how to achieve that without 2 expressions.
