In the js shell, this hangs in yarr-generated code: "H".split(/(?:H{0,}){0,}/);
I still don't like not closing these kind of bugs. It just invites trouble.
The first bad revision is: changeset: 552bb56871e0 user: Chris Leary date: Mon Sep 13 15:53:50 2010 -0700 summary: Bug 571355: Move RegExpStatics out of JSContext. (r=gal)

I'd go hardblocker if the regex were on the web or were less weird. As is, I think it's important but we could live without if we absolutely had to.
