Good question!

The mail subject line was sent in with unicode escaping, so it was
actually transmitted as

Subject: =?utf-8?b?W1N1Y2Nlc3MhXSBbTUVSR0VdWyMyMzA5MDJdWzEuOF0gRml4IOKAnE11?=
	=?utf-8?q?st_end_write_group_=2E=2E=2E=E2=80=9D_error_due_to_error_r?=
	=?utf-8?q?aised_in_a_finally_block?=

I would guess this is because Andrew likes to use cute UNICODE quote
marks rather than ascii 34.

And apparently when Mailman matches against the subject line, it
matches against the raw rather than the interpreted form.

The regexps are

(?i)\[merge|\[codereview\]
(?i)^(?!.*\[merge)
