I would expect that would be the pattern, based upon my understanding of twig.

So I attempted to do this a few times, but the failing &pce->re value kept
changing between runs. Is that expected? That made the write watchpoint fail to
trip. Any advice? Agreed we need to figure out what the pattern actually is.
