           Summary: Throw errors on invalid expressions/support non-PCRE
                    regexp (KJS merge)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 412+
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScript
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: maksim at kde.org


The attached makes the RegExp constructor throw JS error on syntax errors, and 
by doing that for the POSIX path also makes it work... It fixes one of the KJS 
RegExp tests, but makes one of the Mozilla tests throw an exception here where 
it used to "work" --- I do not think that's a regression. (It also shows the 
lack of \u support --- but that's a separate change).
