scoring filter question

Hi.

Some user complained, that we were missing a lot of articles in amny
newsgroups, and sent me some message-ids.

For example:

Message-ID: <xlBXa.28573$M54.20133@fe11.atl2.webusenet.com>
Subject: Alias 2x15 "A Free Agent" <SD-6/SVCD> <Read NFO+0> 04 of 67 - yEnc
"alias.2x15.svcd.sd-6.rar" (40/40)

This article got caught by the scoring part of cleanfeed.

While trying to find out why, I stumbled across this piece of code:
  
  if ($config{aggressive}) {
  ...
  local $_ = $lch{subject};
  tr/a-z0-9 //cd;
  ...
  $score += 3 if /$site_desc.{0,20}site/o;
  ...

As far as I can see, this will assign the above mentioned article +3 points.

Just for the use of the word Free.

IMO, shouldn't it read like this:

  $score += 3 if /($site_desc).{0,20}site/o;

???
