Venus: Excerpt filter working in tests, not on config file

[Mary Gardiner]

I am trying to use the excerpt filter on the feed
http://obsidianwings.blogs.com/obsidian_wings/atom.xml

In case it turns out to be relevant to the problem, I've stored the
current state of the feed at
http://users.puzzling.org/users/mary/tmp/2wk/atom.xml for a couple of
weeks.

I am using Venus, bzr revno 99.

The test appears to work correctly, I used the command:
python tests/reconstitute.py http://users.puzzling.org/users/mary/tmp/2wk/atom.xml --filters "excerpt.py?width=100&target=summary" 

See http://users.puzzling.org/users/mary/tmp/2wk/summary.xml for the output of
the test.

However, if I use the attached config file, I don't get any entries in my
cache, and I get output suggesting that for some reason it is using the
regexp_sifter filter instead.

Output:

I can't find any mention in excerpt.py of why regexp_sifter.py would be
relevant to the feed, and if I switch filters to, eg, minhead.py, the debug
output still says it is applying regexp_sifter.py.
