in thread regex gotcha moving from 5.8.8 to 5.30.0?
I usually use re 'debug'; when debugging regular expressions, but I'm not sure it's helpful in this case.
The usual suspects are .* or .*?, because they start by matching the whole string and then backtracking to match less. Can't you replace them with [^;]* or similar?
map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
