Could you resend the script/data test case as an attachment please?

Attached.

Thanks.

Looks like a core bug, as it's all going pear shaped somewhere in the regexp
engine. You need a UTF8 locale to provoke it:

$ LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 PERL_UNICODE= valgrind /home/nick/Sandpit/-i-g/bin/perl5.9.2 old.pl

[snip output]

This is now officially way above my head!

If the bug has disappeared in a recent maintenance version, do I need to file a bug report? I'm sure the test case could be cut down, but I'm not sure I know how.

thanks for you help. (BTW I've worked around the original problem).
