Summary: Missing dot in Generic.pm

Initial Comment:
LXR 0.9.9, but looks to be the same in 0.9.10 also. 

Nothing runs, basically.  Sorry, lost the exact command but failure is:

[Thu Jul 28 11:08:40 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] [Thu Jul 28 11:08:40 2011] fatal: main, line 224: Sequence (?|...) not recognized in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^\t\t\t\t\t# reminder: no initial space in the grammar, 
...referrer info etc...

This must need the following, a missing dot before a question-mark:

 diff  -C 3 lib/LXR/Lang/Generic.pm.orig lib/LXR/Lang/Generic.pm    
*** lib/LXR/Lang/Generic.pm.orig	Sun Mar 27 10:51:25 2011
--- lib/LXR/Lang/Generic.pm	Fri Jul 29 11:27:50 2011
***************
*** 217,223 ****
  	$source =~ s/^					# reminder: no initial space in the grammar
  				([\w\#]\s*[\w]*)	# reserved keyword for include construct
  				(\s+)				# space
! 				(?|	(\")(.+?)(\")	# C syntax
  				|	(\0<)(.+?)(\0>)	# C alternate syntax
  				|	()([\w:]+)(\b)	# Perl and others
  				)
--- 217,223 ----
  	$source =~ s/^					# reminder: no initial space in the grammar
  				([\w\#]\s*[\w]*)	# reserved keyword for include construct
  				(\s+)				# space
! 				(.?|	(\")(.+?)(\")	# C syntax
  				|	(\0<)(.+?)(\0>)	# C alternate syntax
  				|	()([\w:]+)(\b)	# Perl and others
  				)

..which runs fine.  The same statement is in lib/LXR/Lang.pm WITH the missing dot in place.
