20 are not defined via parentheses. This includes the zero-width
21 assertions "^", "$", "\b", "\B", "\A", "\Z", "\z" and "\G", as well as:
22
23 • The "\z" assertion added in Perl 5.005,
24
25 • The "\K" assertion added in Perl 5.009005,
26
27 • The "\b{gcb}" assertion (and friends) added in Perl 5.021009.
28 Similar braced constructions (like "\b{foo}") are unknown tokens.
29
31 This class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its
32 superclass.
