[ scrapes buildfarm results... ] The Windows critters that are
running that test seem to be
name | operating_system | compiler
-----------+------------------+---------------
bowerbird | Windows | Visual Studio
drongo | Windows | Visual Studio
fairywren | Windows / Msys | gcc
jacana | Windows | gcc
So yeah, the MSVC ones were happy with the test as you had it.
Interesting ... it's not obvious why that would have anything
to do with the behavior of a Perl regexp. Maybe they are using
a different Perl version?
