Hi,
This is a carry over from the wrong group(boost build). In short the "+ 
+" sequence is invalid in boost::regex and valid in PRCE via an  
addition made to Perl 5.10. So, I am porting regular expressions that  
are used in PRCE and having trouble getting around this limitation in  
boost::regex.

snip1:

const boost::regex regex_username_password(
    "("
       "(?:"
          "[a-zA-Z0-9_.!~*'()&=+$,;?/-]++"
       "|"
          "%[0-9a-fA-F]{2}"
       ")+"
     ")"
    "(?:" ":"
         "("
         "(?:"
             "[a-zA-Z0-9_.!~*'()&=+$,-]++"
         "|"
            "%[0-9a-fA-F]{2}"
         ")*"
       ")"
     ")?"
     "@"
);

snip2:

const boost::regex regex_url_params("\\s*;([^?>]++)");

Help!
