I have had support for some PCRE features, including this one, in
JSX:regexp.js:jsx.regexp.RegExp for some time [1], but to support
it by an actual syntax extension via Node.js is a nice idea. (I did
not even know that that was possible.)

(Needs fixing now that the new properties of RegExp instances are
read-only. TODO for the summer break.)
