[MacPerl] $/ Question... AARRGHHHHhhh!

[Power Mac Pac <macpac@macpac.com>]

Is there a problem with setting the input line delimiter to something 
like:

$/ = "\x0D\x0D\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A*\x0D\x0A {38}"; 
(don't work)

When I put the * in there I get a freeze (7500/100 w/7.5.3 rev 2.0) 
without 
the * the script works fine.

my original line delimiter was:
$/ = "\x0D\x0D\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0A\x0D\x0A {38}";
(worked)

but I found a particular instance where one record is short some 
linefeeds.
