Comment:

 Boris, I don't know how to answer this, as the answer would appear to
 depend upon the details of how MSVC implements destructors :-(

 Personally, I think that this should work, although generally speaking,
 creating a new regex object during a destructor call seems like a bad idea
 anyway?  Looking at the call stack the error appears to be somewhere
 inside the std lib code, so I don't really see how I can fix that.

 If you have a test case I can look at then I'll try and take a look,
 otherwise <shrug> I guess, don't know what to say really...

 John.
