testing would be good

On the verge of the next release, I stumbled across an obscure but serious 
(crasher) bug in the rename plugin. Specifically, when using a  back-reference 
in the replacement filename followed immediately by a number. No surprise 
really, the backref gets badly wrong.

Fixing this turned into a non-trivial exercise, with a fair bit of overdue 
attention to that plugin, among other things. I've tested, of course, but not 
extensively. It would be good if some of you who are comfortable using 
svn-derived code could help with evaluation, to speed the release.

My solution to the specific problem was to add support for \g{N} (and 
incidentally, \g{-N}) back references.

Regards
Tom
