Hi Mike

Unfortunately as you are using regex a lot, you are going to be finding a
lot of these errors.

Fortunately I have a solution, but it is a fairly big change so will
have to wait for the weekend.

> The error message says:

The error is just showing the part of the expression that it could not
handle, so nothing has been really lost.  I'll see if I can get the
original rule printed or at least change the message to show that it
is just a part of the original rule.
