The following code​:

  my $s = "Looking for 2-bedroom apartment\n";
  $s =~ s/\B[aeiou]//g;
  print $s;

prints​: Lokng fr 2-bdrom aprtmnt

I believe the correct result should be​: Lkng fr 2-bdrm aprtmnt

Under 5.004_04 and 5.005, I get the correct result; under 5.6.0 I get
what I believe to be an incorrect result.

This bug persisted in 5.6.1, but seems to have been a duplicate of
20010426.002
(http​://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2001-04/msg01639.html)
which was fixed by Hugo (with regression test) in change 9911 for 5.8
