in reply to pattern match hangs on malformed UTF-8 input

I've tried this on 5 servers with 4 different operating systems, including windows 2000. All perl 5.6.1. Granted, all the servers had perl installed by the same admin, but I installed the windows version myself. This is all too consistent to say perl has "just gone bad". Though I am surprised no one else can reproduce it.

    Now I'm really shooting in the dark. Stick a use re 'debug' at the top of your script and post the results. Maybe that'll tell us something.
