The mmv update from 1.01b to 1.01b.14 that just got committed changes
the "to" wildcard index character from '=' to '#'.  The Debian sources
the new version is based on is derived from the DOS version of mmv
(which uses '#') where the original FreeBSD port referenced the Unix
mmv (which uses '=').

I posted a bugreport about this to the Debian bugtracker, but they
closed it saying "it's always been '#' for us".

Similarly, I think FreeBSD should keep using '=', since it's always
been that way for _us_ and will break too many preexisting scripts.
