Should a regex compile if a group is referenced before it's defined? Consider this: (?:(?(2)(a)\|(b))+ Other regex implementations permit forward references to groups. BTW, I had a look at the re module, found it too difficult, and so started on my own implementation of the matching engine (available on PyPI).
