More importantly it introduces a regression in t/spec/S29-list/reverse.t
(Str.reverse is implemented in terms of split-into-characters -> list
reverse -> join; the split failed with your patch, thus causing a test
failure in 'make spectest_regression')

That's unlikely (but not impossible, of course), the regular rexpression
engine is quite good and well-tested. I'll take a look into it later.

Anyway, nice patch, and if Str.reverse is fixed it'll certainly be applied.
