in reply to regexp::assemble and dispatch-table with unicode

U+2009 matches \s, so you go in an infinite loop.

First pass of while loop: "SGB\x{0020}I" gets replaced with "SGB\x{2009}I"
Second pass of while loop: "SGB\x{2009}I" gets replaced with "SGB\x{2009}I"
Third pass of while loop: "SGB\x{2009}I" gets replaced with "SGB\x{2009}I"
...

Sorry, I can't help find you a solution right now. I gotta run.

      RA has no obvious support for global searching. As a quick fix, you could replace \s with something more specific.
