You do see that (in terms of name globs) ll_ost_** is a subset of
ll_ost_io_**, yes?  Ahh.  Perhaps you mean ll_ost_?? and ll_ost_io_??.

Given that the count of ll_ost_io is 201 (which will include your grep

well as the other threads is just over double that, I'd say that your
module option is working.
