I would imagine that the OP has a lot of regexes already written in  
some dialect
and now needs to parse them, to do something with the AST (i.e.  
generate test strings).

In my case, I have been thinking about doing a visualization feature,  
or live interpreted
testing of regexes. Esp. when they get big and ugly, that could speed  
me (and others) up a lot.

For that reason alone, having a Perl-compatible regex grammar would  
be neat.

cheers,
