FS#1182 Plug-ins fail to make repeated calls for repeated text patterns

  I have a number of plugins based off the INCL_FORM plugin at http://wiki.splitbrain.org/plugin:incl_form  -- this has a matching regex of '~~INCL_FORM[^~]*~~' which I found prevented over runs across uses.  That is, I allow all the text up to the closing tilde using [~^]* ...
  
  In the newest (2006-06-26) release, I'm seeing a problem when more than one invocation exists.  For example, when I use two invocations to include two forms in the following page:
  
  ------
  
    ====== Header1 ======
   
    ~~INCL_FORM=form1;param1=value1~~
   
    ====== Header2 ======
   
    ~~INCL_FORM=form2;param2=value2~~
  
  ------
  
  What I expect, is two calls to Plugin::Handle() where each of the matches is passed, parsed, and replaced.
  
  What I seem to get is a single call with only one string:
  
    ~~INCL_FORM=form1;param1=value1~~~~INCL_FORM=form2;param2=value2~~
  
  It looks like the match is now marked as global and all the matches are collapsed into a single value ... obviously, if I return a result, it doesn't work right at all.  
  
  Because I use conservative programming, this string fails to parse properly.
  
  I have not tried to dig deeply into this yet; this seems to be a bad behavior in the new release.

  This bug affects a plug-in I wrote for "Tony Steward" tony_steward@inbox.com and his site at http://locks.stewardclan.net/lockswiki/doku.php

  The form in question is on http://locks.stewardclan.net/lockswiki/doku.php?id=keyconv -- this particular form performs a MySQL query and can not use both the page author and user driven forms on the same page (or two page author driven values!) because the they get glommed together as described above.

  Plugins are considered third party and we can't debug or correct them.  I appreciate you believe the plugin highlights an issue with DW lexer, however you have provided insufficient information to attempt to duplicate the problem or test that it exists.
  
  1. There is no published or downloadable version of the plugin you are using.  Please provide a link to the plugin in use or a simplified test plugin which highlights the same problem.
  2. Provide exact wiki page data where the problem occurs.  The link provided is to a page where there is no anonymous access to the wiki source.
  3. Also provide details of your PHP, Webserver & OS.
