a: b

For some reason, the space character seems not to match a space
character. I'd call it a bug. Other ways to match a space, like \s and
\x20, all seem to work:

   echo 'a: b' | perl -F'/:\s+/' -lane 'print join("--", @F)'

See what happens when you file a bug report via the perlbug program. Cheers!
