Your version of trunk is ~115 revisions old, please update and try
again.  Also, please clear your theme cache after having updated but
before running the frontend.  This all works fine here, but there
*were* changes to the filename parsing in the recent past.  Either you
are out of date or there is a deeper concern, but I suspect the
former.
