Ah, yes, I started down one path, then changed tacks.
I believe if you change this line:
my $regex = '\b(?:' . join('|', @nums) . ')\b'; # update: fixed concat
+enation issue
to this:
my $regex = '\b(' . join('|', @nums) . ')\b'; # update: fixed concaten
+ation issue
it does the job.
For instance, from the debugger (which, note, doesn't play well with my):
DB<1> $_ = "oh blah dee"
DB<2> ($x) = m/(blah)/
DB<3> x $x
0 'blah'
Update: Fixed concatenation issue

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
