Make shared hash keys to be \0-terminated:
one possible resolution for "UTF-8, weird \w behaviour after HASH-KEY-ification" http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2002-01/msg01327.html The hash keys were shared (the SvLEN(sv) = 0 was the giveaway). The hash keys weren't \0-terminated. This meant that the EOL ($) in regmatch() got the nextchr beyond the last character. Since the keys were UTF-8, the nextchr was \1, not the usual string-terminating \0. Wham, no match. I think another possible resolution could be to stop the nextchr computation in regmatch() from peeking beyond the last character of the string: nextchr = locinput < PL_regeol ? UCHARAT(locinput) : 0; p4raw-id: //depot/perl@14908
