Good catch! Now merged. However be extremely careful with map_regm(). As the age of this bug indicates it, almost nobody's using it, and for a reason which is that just like map_reg() it can be extremely expensive if users start to update the map with lots of entries without understanding the impacts of iterating over hundreds of regex. However it's true that it can be extremely convenient to perform some small transformations a-la sed. Cheers, Willy
