Looks like it's a Posix thing added in 5.8.0 which is cool and can be written as
[:^ascii:]
Instead of [^[:ascii:]] 

Very cool, although it only works on my 5.8.0 and not 5.0 
(I don't have a 5.6 ish anyone know when the Posix support was added to regexes?)

This could be usefull if I could do 
if($perlversion >= 5.8.0) { do the posix [:^ascii:] version }
Else { do it the -B emulation way }

Anyone know how to check the version without putting use 5.8.0; at the top?
