WHILEM: matched 65535 out of 0..65535

[AnFunctionArray]

So I was wondering why it wasn't matching at a an obvious match - apparently I had reached the limit wow.

I don't know if it's a bug but it's an interesting corner case at least.

The obvious solution is to use recursion at the end like: (?<pattern>(something)*+(?&pattern)?+).

Recently we merged a patch sequence that means that it should be trivial to replace all of these short integer counts with proper sized ones. @khwilliamson @hvds

@demerphq Can you clarify - I recently run into the same problem again.

Ok - I'm not sure but it looks like this solution works:

(?<pattern>(?&something)*+((?&something)(?&pattern))?+)
