in thread regex question - dynamically address captures

Argh. I had the equivelent of that first off, but I'd used 1 for the section and para numbers so @captures contained a single element with the value 1 and I convinced myself that it was the match count.

Candidate for OT: most egregious programming error, ever maybe? :)

    Well, it will place 1 (success flag) in @captures when there are no captures in the regexp, but that shouldn't matter since there shouldn't be any id_fields when there are no captures.
