And for the stack overflow I haven't yet found its origin.There is no stack overflow here, AFAIU. It's simply that the prepended regexp matches one or more (without any upper bound) characters except "<>\n", which means that we backtrack _a lot_ when the line is long.There is clearly a stack overflow since the OP showed stack overflow errors in *Messages*.
Ah yes, I misunderstood what you meant. I thought you were talking about a stack overflow bug in the regexp engine.
And the stack overflow is in the rest of the regexp: the `+?` repetition uses only ever 1 stack slot no matter how long a match we consider (contrary to the `+` and `*` repetitions which use N stack slots for the N repetitions of the longest match).
Indeed. That's the bug in the bug. But it's the '+?' repetition which causes the "infloop", right?
