Thanks Damian,
That fixed the problem!
Unfortunately there still seems to be one more issue. I am trying to use this module to debug a rather large regular expression with multiple nested defined groups and I am attempting to parse a file that is more than 36000 lines long. The regular expression match itself will complete in about 200ms, but when I attempt to use the debugger it takes about 2-3 seconds to go between each step. If I attempt to "step over" a defined block it takes so long that it effectively hangs the program entirely.
I know this is a rather extreme case and the solution may be to just make smaller files to parse for debugging purposes, but I figured I would let you know so you could look into it and see if there are any easy changes that could be made to improve performance.
I would share the regex I am using and the file that I am trying to parse, but I think the code I am parsing is a proprietary language and I am probably not supposed to share it outside of the company.
Thanks,
Tim

Hi Timothy. Thanks for the bug report.
I have tweaked the lexical hints look-up to remove the error you encountered.
Otherwise, your test code ran perfectly under my latest release (which I just uploaded to CPAN). Please wait for that upload to propagate, then download this latest version and see if it solves your issue.
Damian
