OS shouldn't matter; more germane would be the versions of Perl involved on both sides (i.e. what does perl -v print on the wintendo box and on the Mac box).

Update: Not to mention the spurious r modifier on the regex probably doesn't help.

Update further: OK, so apparently that's a new modifier looks like in 5.14, which probably explains your problems. I get a gripe from my 5.12.4 too so probably you've got 5.14 or newer on your wintendo box and something before that on your mac. Teach me to go play over in clojure land I guess.
