This is a bug report for perl from [EMAIL PROTECTED],
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.7.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]

The LAST_REGEXP_CODE_RESULT ($^R) variable appears to not be set
in regexp matches involving a backreference. In the example below,
if you uncomment one of the two commented regexps and comment the
'(foo|bar)\1+' regexp, $^R will be properly set.


#! perl -w
# $^R undefined on matches involving backreferences
use strict;

print $^R, "\n" if 'x foofoo y' =~ m{
#    (foo)          # $^R correctly set
#    (?:foo|bar)+   # $^R correctly set
    (foo|bar)\1+   # $^R undefined
    (?{ warn "Matched", defined $^N? " <$^N>":"", 
        " and \$^R is about to be set to:\n"; "last regexp code result" 
    })
}x

Hope that helps,
Dan Dascalescu
