[issue40480] "fnmatch" exponential execution time

[Anthony Sottile]

Anthony Sottile <asottile at umich.edu> added the comment:

one way might be to give the groups "unique" names (perhaps hashing the input string?)  ((this is what I attempted to do in a little bit of code which tried to "backport" (group)*+ and (group)++))
