Welcome to the wonderful world of keywords in hba not being specific to fields. I encountered this problem myself back in Oct 2010 [1] and predicted that it would bite other users. You've been kind enough to validate that prediction. I submitted a WIP patch aimed at fixing it just over a week ago [2]. Until that patch (or some other solution) goes through, you'll need to quote "replication" in your hba.conf if you want to use it as a username.
