Why don't you have the index action in the oai module do the
forwarding/redirection for you instead of depending wholly on the
routing system?
[ routing.yml ]
oaiIdentify:
url: /oai/:verb
param: { module: oai }
[ actions.class.php ]
public function executeIndex($request)
{
$verb = $request->getParameter('verb');
$this->forward('oai, $verb);
// Alternately, you could use redirection
// $this->redirect('oai/'.$verb);
}
