// Determine whether this library should match PCRE exactly
// for a particular Regexp.  (If so, the testing framework can
// check that it does.)
//
// This library matches PCRE except in these cases:
//   * the regexp contains a repetition of an empty string,
//     like (a*)* or (a*)+.  In this case, PCRE will treat
//     the repetition sequence as ending with an empty string,
//     while this library does not.
//   * Perl and PCRE differ on whether \v matches \n.
//     For historical reasons, this library implements the Perl behavior.
//   * Perl and PCRE allow $ in one-line mode to match either the very
//     end of the text or just before a \n at the end of the text.
//     This library requires it to match only the end of the text.
//   * Similarly, Perl and PCRE do not allow ^ in multi-line mode to
//     match the end of the text if the last character is a \n.
//     This library does allow it.
//
// Regexp::MimicsPCRE checks for any of these conditions.
