Negative lookahead for props.conf

I am trying to create a stanza in props.conf so that all non splunk internal logs go to index=newindex.

I tried using negative lookahead as follow:

[source::^(?!.*log\/*\\*splunk).*$]

But it doesn't work.
Thanks.

Instead of using props.conf you can use inputs.conf to route internal logs to other index.

[monitor://$SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk]
index = newindex

We cannot change the config at UF.
