This works for me:

my $x="My name is VC";
my $y="myname";

my $r = do { local $" = ' *'; my @r = split //, $y; qr/@r/i };

if ($x =~ /($r)/) {
  printf "Matched from %d to %d: '%s'\n", $-[0], $+[0], $1;
}
[download]

Prints:

Matched from 0 to 7: 'My name'
[download]

print "Just another Perl ${\(trickster and hacker)},"
The Sidhekin proves Sidhe did it!
