{
use charnames ":alias" => { FOO => 0x2660 };
my $pat1 = '\N{FOO}';
$re1 = qr/$pat1/;
}
{
use charnames ":alias" => { FOO => 0x2661 };
my $pat2 = '\N{FOO}';
$re2 = qr/$pat2/;
}
{
use charnames ":alias" => { FOO => 0x2662 };
/$re1$re2/
}
What should the pattern match? Probably /\N{U+2660}\N{U+2661}/, but the information is not available to qr// at run-time, much less to the m// operator that's not in scope of the relevant directives.
Those problems were resolved by converting \N{NAME} to \N{U+NUM} at compile-time, and throwing an error when presented with \N{NAME} at run-time.
"\N{NAME}" works. qr/\N{NAME}/ works. Others, not so much.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
