Hmmm. Since that resolved the original poster's problem, it's got me
worried. This shouldn't be the case. Sometimes there will be more than
URL directing to exactly the same view and set of variables. It's a bit
messy (redirects would work better), but it's not inconceivable and not
really wrong, per se. Reversing those patterns should just pick one and
move on. Either one would be correct.
Note that this is what already happens if you have a pattern like
'/foo/[abc]/(\w+)'
for example. Reversing that will always give '/foo/a/...', although
'/foo/b/...' and '/foo/c/...' would also be correct. The point is, we
just pick one. The caller doesn't get to choose, since they've said all
the patterns were equivalent.
Thus, this is a bug in reverse(), possibly. So now I have to do more
work and fix it. I remember when I used to have free time. My
recollection is that those were happier days. :-(
