The "problem" is that the data string is too short. But
unpack doesn't generate a warning (or croak) in this case
for simple patterns:
mhx@r2d2 $ perl -MData::Dumper -we'print Dumper([unpack "n", "a"])'

same way. No warning, no return values.

Under /iaa regex matching, folds that cross the ASCII/non-ASCII
boundary are prohibited. This changes _to_uni_fold_flags() and
_to_utf8_fold_flags() functions to take a new flag which, when set,
tells them to not accept such folds.
This allows us to later move the intelligence for handling this
situation to these centralized functions.

regexec.c: Use foldcase instead of lower/upper
The way Perl deals with folds of ASCII-range characters, is to have an
array that maps to the opposite case character. For example, fold[a] is
A, and fold[A] is a. To see if a character matches a pattern character
case-insensitively, you compare it against the pattern character itself,
and if that fails, against the fold[pattern character].
Unfortunately that breaks down outside of ASCII, where the folds are not
necessarily one-to-one. This code is a vestige of that original
paradim, and I'm converting it to use the more modern. The apparent
reason it doesn't fail in fold_grind.t is that it is for CURLY nodes,
and CURLY is not currently set on EXACTish nodes unless the node
contains a single UTF-8 invariant character. Effectively, that means
a character in the ASCII range.
I think parts of this could be simplified further, but I don't
understand the whole context of this code to undertake that.

utf8.c: Re-order if branches for speed
Probably the C optimizer does this anyway, but do the uncomplicated test

complications are hidden in a macro). The new first test is a
pre-requisite for the new 2nd test anyway.

Previously, only under EBCDIC, malformed input was allowed here if

These expressions, while valid, are overly complicated in order to make

heard any cause to regret that decision; if we ever want to go back, the
