Subject: bug#20026: [PATCH] 24.4; regexp parse miss in ruby-mode
Date: Sat, 07 Mar 2015 10:35:36 +0900

ruby-mode misses a regexp just after an open brace ('{') or a vertical
bar ('|').  As the result, `forward-sexp` and regexp highlighting do not
work expectedly (or as a ruby interpreter interprets).

ex.

  tap { /'/ }

This "/'/" should be parsed as an regexp matches a single quote, but the
first operator is parsed as a division operator and the succeeding
single quote is parsed as a beginning of a string.

Same for `{|x| /'/}`.
