Table Rate Shipping in Magento 1.7 with Wildcards not Working

Question

Magento 1.7 does not calculate the the shipping costs correctly when i upload a CSV with "*" wildcard in the "Country", "Region", "ZIP". Magento always shows the first shipping price even with cart subtotals above 500. Is this a known bug? Did i do anything wrong? Any ideas?

According to this guy you must ALWAYS use country codes, otherwise PHP throws a notice of undefined index. We settled for the 3-letter country code and it fixed this issue for us.
