It passes a pattern, but it's actually special-cased not to use the regex engine. Ok, so I did it without thinking. `print map $complement{$_}, reverse unpack '(a)*', $chain;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Reversing an array of SV* or reversing an array of char (assuming UTF8=0)? We're talking about the same CPU ops.	[reply]
