I saw it on rare occasions under v18 Emacs.  I don't know at this
point if there is anything I can do about it.  What might work is
to match headers using a simpler expression and then pull them
apart a piece at time, still using very simple expressions.  I
hope it won't come to this, but I will not rule out this
possibility.
