This package FTBFS with perl 5.18 from experimental (in a clean sbuild
session):

#   Failed test '{n,m} where n > m'
#   at /build/dom-libje-perl_0.059-1-i386-dyd_R2/libje-perl-0.059/blib/lib/JE/Object/Function.pm line 466.
# (?^u:(?:(?^:(?{@Match=@EraseCapture=()}))a{3,2}))

#   Failed test 'new RegExp(pattern with {3,2}) dies with a SyntaxError'
#   at /build/dom-libje-perl_0.059-1-i386-dyd_R2/libje-perl-0.059/blib/lib/JE/Object/Function.pm line 466.
# Looks like you failed 2 tests of 505.
t/15.10-regexp-objects.t ................. 
Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/505 subtests 
        (less 13 skipped subtests: 490 okay)

(lots of regex warnings omitted)
