[gradsusr] Problems with gribmap

I'm trying to play around with GEFS data. I downloaded data for one
specific case and forecast hour for all 20 members, ran g2ctl on it, and
made adjustments for the ensemble dimension. When I ran gribmap, I get this
error:

-bash-4.1$ gribmap -i GEFS_pert_f108.ctl
grib2map: scanning GRIB2 file: geep1.t12z.pgrb2bf108
grib2map warning: could not open GRIB file: geep1.t12z.pgrb2bf108
grib2map: reached end of files
grib2map: Writing out the index file

The relevant part of the control file is:

dset ^ge%e.t12z.pgrb2bf108
index ^GEFS.t12z.pgrb2bf108.idx
undef 9.999E+20

The list of data files is:

gep01.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep02.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep03.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep04.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep05.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep06.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep07.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep08.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep09.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep10.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep11.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep12.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep13.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep14.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep15.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep16.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep17.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep18.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep19.t12z.pgrb2bf108
gep20.t12z.pgrb2bf108

So there's a discrepancy between my template string and how gribmap is
interpreting it. It wants to substitute the string "ep1" where I mean for
it to substitute "p01". Why is it doing this? And how do I correct it?
