Ignore-paths either ignored or not working?

Issue

I'm trying to avoid building AST for certain file which has unfortunately incorrect entry (we have previous issue describing it). I'm setting ignore path via:

(setq cljr-middleware-ignored-paths '(".*mappers.clj"))

Assuming this var will be picked up when refactor-nrepl is called. When I call "cljr-rename-symbol" in the project after it still fails with exception

ERROR: Unhandled REPL handler exception processing message {:dir /Users/rmuslimov/workspace/plato/, :prefix-rewriting true, :ns plato.adapters.morse.core, :name render-keyboard-for-user, :file /Users/rmuslimov/workspace/plato/src/main/clj/plato/adapters/morse/core.clj, :ignore-errors [], :debug false, :op find-symbol, :column 7, :insert-newline-after-require true, :line 18, :id 98, **:ignore-paths [.*mappers.clj],** :session aa4fff30-2497-4460-a788-64ae05359664}

Message contains :ignore-paths [.*mappers.clj],, so I assume it passed properly. Am I doing something wrong with regex syntax, why this file still used for AST building?

I also tried corner case example of putting ".*" as regex, and error still occurs

Expected behavior

Once ignore-paths is set, file shouldnt' be used for AST building

Actual behavior

However, it is still used
