Condensing the alternations in the relevant section of the RE:
  (?:record[a-z]*|...)\b

There you can see the /[a-z]*/ is not redundant. It allows for more alpha chars
following the leading 'record' string, before the final end-of-word boundary.
Effectively meaning "optional".

Closing, since the stated issue is not a bug.

John, why did you have a close look at the rule in the first place? If the rule
caused FPs, please feel free to re-open this bug, giving more information about
the mail and SA rules hit.
