[Esd-l] *.cv.doc trapped how?

I believe that you have an entry in your MANGLED line something like this:
\{[0-9a-f+\}
I believe this is the guy that grabs double extension filenames.
If you remove this entry, the double-extension filenames should pass
through.
Personally, I like the feature...there are just too many unknowns out
there.
