pcre-mode is awesome. But, it broken my isearch function in some case.

I often to search a string with C-s, and then press a hotkey `(isearch-yank-word)
to select word after point as search content, e.g.

  1. I want to search all string "${argv[@]}" in current buffer.
  2. move point before $.
  3. C-s to start isearch
  4. M-l (this is a keybinding) try to select ${argv
  5. error message: [Bad brace expression ${argv]

Thanks.

Thank you for the report. I'm traveling right now so I'll take a look at it when I'm back home in a couple of weeks.
