I'm not really sure I completely understand the differences
myself...I generally use the "\@<!" form for most things, but it
didn't work here, and changing them solved my problem. Hurray
for trial-and-error. :)

Vim's help is top-notch. Just about every facet you can think of
is contained within. Finding it can be a bit more troublesome,
especially if you know what you want, but don't know how Vim
implements it. Using ":helpgrep" and tab/^D expansion after
typing ":help subject can help get you pointed in the right
direction.
:help :helpgrep
:help {subject}
