This is a bug report for perl from eda@waniasset.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.40 running under perl 5.22.2.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]

Currently this gives a run-time warning, but no compile-time error:

    use 5.022;
    $_ = 'abc';
    s/(a)/x$1$2/;
    say;

If the regexp on the LHS of s/// is known at compile time, then the
number of capturing groups it contains is known.  Under 'use strict',
a mention in the RHS of a capture variable which doesn't have a
corresponding capturing group (like $2 in the above example)
should give a compile-time error.

[Please do not change anything below this line]
