 `Keyword` is imported from dir-spec and

 {{{
 KeyValue ::= Keyword "=" Value
 Keyword = KeywordChar+
 KeywordChar ::= 'A' ... 'Z' | 'a' ... 'z' | '0' ... '9' | '-'
 }}}

 but... most headers have underscores in them.

 My parser wasn't strict enough to catch this the first time. ):

 I suggest this is fixed with a specification update to reflect reality
 rather than creating complexity we have to maintain forever parsing two
 sets of keys.
