This is strange, this is the output from me changing publishers:

you'll see I originally had the development as my preferred. Then I decided to add the release without the -P but the same name as the development and you can see the preferred publisher was replaced with the release publisher. I guess only one publisher can exist with the same name. In the second set I set everything back to where the development was the publisher for opensolaris.org. Again without the "-P".
So, I don't know why it's not working for you. I'll have to think and research.
