/* The macros below should be used to protect recursive SRE(match)()
 * calls that *failed* and do *not* return immediately (IOW, those
 * that will backtrack). Explaining:
 *
 * - Recursive SRE(match)() returned true: that's usually a success
 *   (besides atypical cases like ASSERT_NOT), therefore there's no
 *   reason to restore lastmark;
 *
 * - Recursive SRE(match)() returned false but the current SRE(match)()
 *   is returning to the caller: If the current SRE(match)() is the
 *   top function of the recursion, returning false will be a matching
 *   failure, and it doesn't matter where lastmark is pointing to.
 *   If it's *not* the top function, it will be a recursive SRE(match)()
 *   failure by itself, and the calling SRE(match)() will have to deal
 *   with the failure by the same rules explained here (it will restore
 *   lastmark by itself if necessary);
 *
 * - Recursive SRE(match)() returned false, and will continue the
 *   outside 'for' loop: must be protected when breaking, since the next
 *   OP could potentially depend on lastmark;
 *
 * - Recursive SRE(match)() returned false, and will be called again
 *   inside a local for/while loop: must be protected between each
 *   loop iteration, since the recursive SRE(match)() could do anything,
 *   and could potentially depend on lastmark.
 *
 * For more information, check the discussion at SF patch #712900.
