Wald Mesh Lift-Off basket with moustache bars?

I'm currently building up a trek soho s as a grocery bike, and was thinking about putting moustache bars onto it.
I'm yet to buy the front basket, but i was considering going with wald's mesh lift-off basket.
Does anyone know if this basket is compatible with moustache bars?
I should have no problems mounting the basket if the bars are mounted "upside down" (rise instead of drop), but i'd like to mount them the standard way if possible.

Thanks!

Um, I have no idea. Since I do have a moustache bar, I would be interested in whatever you come up with. Would you give me a PM when you get an answer, or your own experience. I swear, I could almost have a new bike for the price of the various bags that didn't quite work out.
