I recommend that you add a note about that $^R problem to the docs at
annocpan.org?
http://annocpan.org/~NWCLARK/perl-5.8.7/pod/perlre.pod
Annotations are designed for real users.
*This* is a bug in the implementation that needs to be documented
(preferably fixed)
annocpan is not the *master* copy of the documentation of anything.
As ever, please report the bug to the maintainer of the module (via the
correct mechanism for that module), so that the master can be updated.
Otherwise the bug will never be fixed, and the incorrect documentation
will continue to propagate elsewhere.
For the archives, a bug report *was* filed against this behaviour in
December 2004, as #32840 "$^R value lost in (?:...)? constructs"
I could mail a patch to p5p to document it in perlre.pod if you think
it's important enough.
