Ugh.  Sorry to reply to own post, but forum ate square brackets and changed meaning in mail archive.  It should have said like this:

> This worked consistently in 0.7.6x (and according to the docs, it should work):
> 
> location = /base { (some stuff) }
> location ^~ /base { (different stuff) }
> 
> 

Apologies.
