New submission from Armin Rigo <arigo at users.sourceforge.net>:
The attached example shows a case where the '_sre' module goes into an instantaneous infinite memory leak. The bug (and probably the fix too) is related to empty matches in the MIN_UNTIL operator ("+?", "*?"). It looks very similar to the bug and fix already checked in about the MAX_UNTIL operator ("+", "*").
