in thread Can you do "conjunctive" (overlapping) conditions in a single regexp?

Nice. The first snippet is exactly what I would have done, except I'd replace
(??{ (pos()-$^R < 5) ? "" : "no\\bmatch" })
with
(?(?{ pos()-$^R >= 5 })(?!))
to save from compiling patterns repeatedly.

    I missed that possibility in the documentation. That would be more efficient.
