I've tried reproducing this in straight perl but I don't think I can without using some C code, specifically the call to SvPVutf8 in sv2cstr() seems to be the culprit. If I change that to SvPV() it seems to work. Im wondering if there is some strange caching of utf8 strings going on that =~ m// is not clearing. Ill keep digging and hopefully be able to narrow it down to a commit between 5.14.1 and 5.14.2 so we can understand more whats going here.
