  Wed Dec 16 11:56:30 2009 sharyanto [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: documentation: should warn/mention about not supporting (de)serializing regexp by default
Since regexes are so common, maybe warn about not being able to (de)serialize qr// objects? (And links to Regexp::Copy or Clone)

Better: regexp support should be implemented in Storable. A ticket exists in the perl RT queue, but is unfortunately marked as stalled: https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=50608 And Regexp::Copy does not work anymore with newer perls, unfortunately.

Storable freezes/thaws regexps from 3.08, with some limitations (mostly regexp syntax varies as new features are added.)
