Description
When using variable pattern with replaceFirst you may cross issues if the pattern contains specific tokens. For instance on Windows with the path "C:\projectsASF\Git\ofbiz-framework/" you have inside the token "\p" which has a special meaning.
I stumbled upon this issue on Windows while using webtools/control/entityref:
Caused by: java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unknown character property name {r} near index 4
C:\projectsASF\Git\ofbiz-framework/

The simplest solution is to replace replaceFirst by StringUtils.replaceOnce.
