#8897: Peculiarity in url template tag - lookup fails when view name enclosed in
single quotes

Does what it says on the tin.
Old, non-working code example:
urls.py
{{{
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^servicemanagement/status/$',
'nwwcfh.servicestatus.views.map_details', name='map-details'),
}}}
intended template usage:
{{{
<li><a href="{% url map-details %}" title="View an map of current service
status">Service Status</a></li>
}}}
This fails, giving one of two errors (seemingly at random): either "there
is no module named urls" or a message complaining that "map-details" can't
be reversed.
Fix:
{{{
urlpatterns = patterns("",
url(r'^servicemanagement/status/$',
"nwwcfh.servicestatus.views.map_details", name="map-details"),
}}}
(i.e. use double quotes instead of single quotes )
Why does this work? Don't know. But it took me the best part of a day to
figure this out!
