You might look at Regexp::Common on CPAN. I know that you can’t use it directly, but it has a lot of tested regexes, and I don’t think it updates frequently. So you could probably either just pull the correct regexes out (or, it looks like, make it generate them for you), or just include the whole module, kit and caboodle, in some local lib directory as a part of your project?
