+ * Date: 23 October 2001
+ *
+ * SUMMARY: Testing regexps with the global flag set.
+ * NOT every substring fitting the given pattern will be matched.
+ * The parent string is CONSUMED as successive matches are found.
+ *
+ * From the ECMA-262 Final spec:
+ *
+ * 15.10.6.2 RegExp.prototype.exec(string)
+ * Performs a regular expression match of string against the regular
+ * expression and returns an Array object containing the results of
+ * the match, or null if the string did not match.
+ *
+ * The string ToString(string) is searched for an occurrence of the
+ * regular expression pattern as follows:
+ *
+ * 1. Let S be the value of ToString(string).
+ * 2. Let length be the length of S.
+ * 3. Let lastIndex be the value of the lastIndex property.
+ * 4. Let i be the value of ToInteger(lastIndex).
+ * 5. If the global property is false, let i = 0.
+ * 6. If i < 0 or i > length then set lastIndex to 0 and return null.
+ * 7. Call [[Match]], giving it the arguments S and i.
+ * If [[Match]] returned failure, go to step 8;
+ * otherwise let r be its State result and go to step 10.
+ * 8. Let i = i+1.
+ * 9. Go to step 6.
+ * 10. Let e be r's endIndex value.
+ * 11. If the global property is true, set lastIndex to e.
+ *
+ * etc.
+ *
+ *
+ * So when the global flag is set, |lastIndex| is incremented every time
+ * there is a match; not from i to i+1, but from i to "endIndex" e:
+ *
+ * e = (index of last input character matched so far by the pattern) + 1
+ *
+ * Thus in the example below, the first endIndex e occurs after the
+ * first match 'a b'. The next match will begin AFTER this, and so
+ * will NOT be 'b c', but rather 'c d'. Similarly, 'd e' won't be matched.
