When called with the syntax I've used, it returns a list containing a

I'll try without the paranthesis.
Can it be that perl treats the entire source text between left and right
paranthesis as a regular expression.
If so, I consider this a bug.
There's no bug. You're doing something wrong. If you show us a bit more
code, that demonstrates how you're using the function, we might be able to
help more.
