Too bad!
Your workaround works. 
I'll use that instead.
Thanks!

Maybe because kamailio uses a regular expression lib that doesn't support this syntax (since there is a seperate regex module that supports PCRE it implies the "standard" regexes don't).

Easy work around is to remove all X- headers and add them again, something like:

remove_hf_re("^X-");
if(is_present_hf("X-ThisHeaderShouldNotBeRemoved"))
{
 append_hf("X-ThisHeaderShouldNotBeRemoved: $(hdr(X-ThisHeaderShouldNotBeRemoved))\r\n");
}
