Perl checkAPIs errors

Hey,

before uploading my changes, I wanted to test my files with perl, like its mentioned within the guide "3.9 - Contribute 
your changes".  For my new functions I edited three files.
-       Starting perl for the first file I first got the error, that I used non-ASCII Chars. Since I have fixed that 
problem, starting perl another time for the same file it's just crashing and I get a Windows message "perl.exe has 
stopped working". Looking to the prompt, there hasn't been added any new output message by perl. Does anybody know, 
whats happening there or how I get the error for crashing perl?
      (I used the perl command within git-bash and having a win7 x64 operating system.)

-       Using the perl command for the other two files, I get this message on the prompt:
      "Nested quantifiers in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/ \s index \s*+ <-- HERE  [^\(\w] / at 
D:/Development/wireshark/tools/checkAPIs.pl line 1395."
      I even don't get the point of that message. Can someone help me with that issue?

Thanks in advance.

T. Scholz
