--- Comment #1 from Philip Hazel <ph10@???> ---
Thank you for the report. Yes, it is indeed a bug. Unfortunately, you have just
missed the 8.40 release, which happened earlier this week. I am hoping that
8.40 will be nearly the last, if not the actual last, release of PCRE1. As this
is a minor issue (personally, I'd categorize it as "low" rather than medium), I
do not plan to look at it immediately. However, if and when more work is done
on PCRE1, I will see if it is easy to fix. If it isn't, it may just get left as
a "wontfix".
I have looked at PCRE2, and this bug is indeed also present in the current
10.22 release. However, it is *not* present in the forthcoming 10.23 release,
which is currently available as a Release Candidate and will be out in a few
weeks' time.
[There's been a lot of tidying up done, which caught a number of similar issues
such as the same error for /\s+\Q\E?/, in other words, not completely ignoring
ignoreable sequences in the middle of quantifiers.]
