From hlhamilt@aud.alcatel.com

I am trying to match on a string of this form​:
'signal \w+(\s*,\s*\w+){$x}'

When $x approaches 11000+, perl core dumps. The '\w+' are
between 10 and 300 characters each. The total string length
is around 600k characters. I have a test file which exhibits
this problem. It's 120k compressed.

Thanks,
Harlin!
