[perl #81286] Subsequent assertions with \G and gc modifiers dont work as expected

Under Perl 5.12.1, the following test does not succeed.

use Test::More;
$_ = "abc";
ok /\G^/gc;
ok /\G^/gc; # not ok

Since you can't be on the "other side" of an assertion, I would expect  
subsequent regexes to work as the one before them.

Also, if between the regexes, I put the following, things work as  
expected:

pos($_) = pos($_);

Thanks,
Jake
