- [perl #70764] $' fails to initialized for pre-compiled regular expression matches
-
- The match vars are associated with the regexp that last matched
- successfully. In the case of $str =~ $qr or /$qr/, since the $qr could
- be used in multiple scopes that need their own sets of match vars, the
- $qr is cloned by Perl_reg_temp_copy as of change 30677/28d8d7f. This
- happens in pp_regcomp before pp_match has stringified the LHS, hence the
- bug. In short, /$gror/ is not equivalent to
- ($which = !$which) ? /$gror/ : /$gror/, which is weird.
