The problem was with a faulty regex in Text::Balanced. Unless you have found 
a new bug, that bug was fixed in version 1.84.

The way to check that the right version is installed is normally through 
Makefile.PL's PREREQ_PM hash. Right now that part is asking that the user 
have Text::Balanced 1.84 or better, and ought to warn if it's not there (the 
CPAN shell will fetch the dependency if it fails).

If people are installing it in other ways, then the only way to impose a 
version is to have SAC.pm say "use Text::Balanced '1.84'". Feel free to patch 
that if you think people may not be using Makefile.PL correctly (which would 
be silly, but you never know. And perhaps PPM doesn't work with that ?)
