Bug Description

RegExp is not properly protected against garbage collection and can cause a crash depending on when the garbage collection kicks in.

To reproduce the problem save http://paste.ubuntu.com/10821832/ to file.qml and run
QV4_MM_AGGRESSIVE_GC=1 qmlscene file.qml

The fix is accepted upstream at https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/110411/
