Yes. I have confirmed this problem in the latest code from the trunk in the repository. The method SearchAndReplace._replace() goes into an infinite loop because the empty string "" is being matched. I have a patch that I will add to the patch tracker.

Could you compile and try with the latest SVN repository ? I think this bug is already fixed

I have been using the latest from trunk. I just tried again, updating to the latest and I am still able to reproduce the bug.

I am new to SVN, so there is a possibility that something else is going on. But, I am using the latest from trunk as far as I can tell.
