It's rejecting it at the "qAo" portion.  We reject any lower case
characters other than 'q' in the Q-construct portion.  I just added
some more debug statements to valid_path(), so you can see more
easily why a particular path is rejected.

Looking at the Q-construct page, it looks like "qAo" was recently
added (1/28/2003), but there's also a "qAr" now, so it looks like we
need to allow lower-case characters now.

Perhaps someone else can get to that soon.  If not, I'll take a
crack at it.

I'll look into that one.
