Subject: Analyse escapes in regexps (reference escape list included)
Brian d Foy published Tom Christansen's reference list of escape sequences in regexps: https://gist.github.com/1342877 It would be useful to parse regexps to extract escape sequences and use that information to deduce the minimum Perl version required. -- Olivier Mengué - http://perlresume.org/DOLMEN

Similar list is already included into PPIx::Regexp. I'm planning to use PPIx::Regex in P::MV some day. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
A test case: perl -MPerl::MinimumVersion -E "say Perl::MinimumVersion->new(\q{/\h/})->minimum_version" Should report "5.010" (P:MV 1.28 reports "5.004"). -- Olivier Mengué - http://perlresume.org/DOLMEN
