This is a bug report for perl from jvdias(a)redhat.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.7.

Use of study() with utf8 support enabled breaks perl-5.8.7's
regular expressions :
OK without UTF:
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
perl -pe 'study; s/HIJK/1234/;'
ABDCEFG1234
$ echo 'ABCDEFGHIJK' |
perl -e '$_=<>; study; print /HIJK/,"\n";'
1
FAILS with UTF:
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
PERL_UNICODE=31 perl -pe 'study; s/HIJK/1234/;'
ABDCEFGHIJK
$ echo 'ABCDEFGHIJK' |
PERL_UNICODE=31 perl -e '$_=<>; study; print /HIJK/,"\n";'
(re did not match)
Seems to be study() that is the culprit:
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
PERL_UNICODE=31 perl -pe 's/HIJK/1234/;'
ABDCEFG1234
And it is because $_ gets utf8-ness from STDIN:
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
PERL_UNICODE=63 perl -e '$_=<>; study; print /HIJK/ ? "OK" :
"FAIL","\n";'
FAIL
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
perl -e '$_=<>; study; print /HIJK/ ? "OK" :
"FAIL","\n";'
OK
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' | PERL_UNICODE=63
perl -e '$_=<>; print /HIJK/ ? "OK" :
"FAIL","\n";'
OK
This was in the 'en_US.UTF-8' locale. If I make utf-8 support
conditional on locale, the problem goes away for the C locale:
$ echo 'ABDCEFGHIJK' |
PERL_UNICODE=127 LC_ALL=C perl -e '$_=<>; study; print /HIJK/ ? "OK"
: "FAIL","\n";'
OK
