Passing view extra info from urls.py

I have looked at the django documentation and searched the group
archive for my answer, and believe I know how this is supposed to
work, I just cannot figure out why it is not working for me. I want
to pass an extra keyword parameter to my view that contains a filter
value, but it is not getting passed. Here is the urls.py entry:

(r'requirementlibrary/(?P<id>\d+)/requirements/$', 'requirements',
{'filter_param':'library'}),

and the view:
def requirements(request, id=None, filter_param=None):
print filter_param

the filter_param is always "None"

Here is the example from the django docs:

(r'^blog/(?P<year>\d{4})/$', 'year_archive', {'foo': 'bar'}),

In this example, for a request to /blog/2005/, Django will call the
blog.views.year_archive() view, passing it these keyword arguments:
year='2005', foo='bar'

Anyone know what I a missing?
