[cl-ppcre-devel] Typo in documentation string for parser function GROUP?

Hi everybody,

I only have version 1.2.10.  Since the change log for 1.2.11 doesn't
mention this problem, I assume it hasn't been fixed yet.

In parser.lisp, the documentation string for function GROUP starts out

  "Parses and consumes a <group>.
The productions are: <group> -> \"(\"<regex>\")\"
                                \"(?:\"<regex>\")\"
                                \"(?<\"<regex>\")\"

But shouldn't the last line read

                                \"(?>\"<regex>\")\"

? After all, (?< tokens always have something else after the angle bracket.
