Regular expression pattern matching may surprise you if you're not
accustomed to Unicode. Starting in Perl 5.14, there are a number of
-modifiers available that control this. For convenience, they will be

-(typical) trailing slash of a regular expression. (In 5.14, they are
-usable only infix, for example by C</(?a:foo)/>, or by setting them to
-apply across a scope by, e.g., C<use re '/a';>. It is planned to lift
-this restriction in 5.16.)
