You might want to consider changing some of your examples so that they don't lie on edge cases (that way it's more obvious what's happening). For example...
</p>
<strike>
<code>
while (<DATA>)
{
print if 2 .. 3;
}
</code>
</strike>
<p>
...might be more instructive as...
</p>
<code>
while (<DATA>)
{
print if 2 .. 4;
}
</code>
<p>
Likewise for ...
</p>
<strike><code>
while (<DATA>)
{
print if 1 .. /end/;
}
</code></strike>
<p>...and...</p>
<code>
while (<DATA>)
{
print if 2 .. /end/;
}
</code>
