Hello!

The javadoc says that Pattern.compile(String regex, int flag) will throw IllegalArgumentException, if flag contains an invalid bit set. However, it fails to do so. Would you please help review the simple fix for that? Alternatively, we could just remove the corresponding @throws part, but that would change the spec.

Looks fine. But given it's a behavior change, you probably still need a CCC for it.

thanks! -Sherman
