Lints perfectly here. But I suspect a 0xc2 character was mashed to
something else in your rule above. (If the mashing simply removed
the MSB it'd be a 0x42, 'B'. But no capital B appears within the
three lines. So it was mashed to something else. It prints here as
the greater than or equal sign,  '?'. (If that makes it through
email.) Your source file is "obviously" from a system running a
different character set than I am. {^_-}

What non-8 bit ASCII character appears on the "uri" line?
