# A notable difference between PCRE and .NET.  According to

# If you make a subroutine call to a non-unique named 
# subpattern, the one that corresponds  to  the first 
# occurrence of the name is used. In the absence of 
# duplicate numbers (see the previous section) this is 
# the one with the lowest number.
# .NET takes the most recently captured number according to MSDN:
# A backreference refers to the most recent definition of 
# a group (the definition most immediately to the left, 
# when matching left to right). When a group makes multiple
# captures, a backreference refers to the most recent capture.
