thanks to all who helped me better understand this condensed bit of code.

Yes, I actually don't really understand these calls. What do the braces do? 
$regexp_func[$field] would be the array element number $field of 
@regexp_func. Do the braces ensure that the variable is interpolated, to 
the effect that the subroutine with the value of $regexp_func[$field] as 
its name is called?
