+ Log: Don't bother doing POSIX charclass parsing if it
+ possibly cannot be so. Prepares way for charclass
+ syntax like [[abc]||[def]] (or just [[abc][def]])
+ for union, [[\w]&&[$a]] for intersection,
+ and [[a-z]&&[^def]] for subtraction.
+
+ Currently /[[a]/ (or /[a[]/) parses as a character
+ class containing two characters, "[" and "a",
+ this may have to be broken for the syntax described
+ above, otherwise we would have to scan the whole pattern
+ to find out whether the square brackets match pairwise.
+ Luckily, the special case of "[" doesn't seem to be
+ documented (as opposed to "]" and "-"), so we may have
+ better story for breaking it... One can always use \[
+ if one wants a literal "[", so there.
