[issue30973] Regular expression "hangs" interpreter

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Right.  We don't try to fix handling these kinds of exponential expressions.  This is a case of "don't do that" :)

(I don't know if the regex module is better at "handling" this kind of regex bug.)
