[Spamassassin Wiki] Update of "TextWrapError" by TheoVanDinter

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Spamassassin Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by TheoVanDinter:
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TextWrapError

New page:
If you're seeing an error similar to:

{{{
null string many times in regex; marked by <-- HERE in 
m/\G(?:(?<=[\s,]))* <-- HERE \Z/ at 
/opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.7/Text/Wrap.pm line 46.
}}}

This issue is popping up more and more on the users list and in irc.  The short version is that newer versions of Text::Wrap (not associated with SpamAssassin) throw this warning for a regular expression that has been in use for years.  It's been reported as a bug to the Text::Wrap authors already.  More information can be found in SpamAssassin Bugzilla ticket 5056:
