switch matching incorrectly

We've seen a few errors that seem to come from a request being sent to the wrong pool. We have an iRule similar to: when HTTP_REQUEST { switch -glob [HTTP::path] { ...
application delivery
dev
devops
iRules

There are some debugging statements for each element of the switch: 

  
    if { $DEBUG } {   
       log local0. "proxy to dailyink"   
       log local0. "[HTTP::host]"   
       log local0. "[HTTP::path]"   
    }

The image works fine if it is loaded on it's own, eg: http://fwiz4-dev.foobar.com/images/but_find_employee.gif

If the image is loaded in the same request as the home page (Shift-Reload in FireFox) then the server returns a 404. A packet trace reveals that the request is sent to the gwp pool.
