Problem: The supplied code segfaults.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-5.8.8-28.fc7

How reproducible: run this program:

#!/usr/bin/perl                                                                
                                                                        
binmode(STDOUT, ":utf8");
binmode(STDIN, ":utf8");

use encoding(UTF8);

$title="test";
if ($title =~ /'élé'/) {
    print "it matches with title $title\n";
}
else {
    print "it does not match with title $title\n";
}
exit 0;

My locale, if it makes a difference: el_GR.UTF-8

Note that taking out the single quotes, or one of the accented e's, or putting 
other text in front of the string (but after the quote) makes it work fine.
