 From the RFC:

have you considered throwing different Exception types for the two 
failure types? (e.g. PregExecutionException and PregCompilationException)


You could have both be child classes of PregException, but in actual 
fact, the second should probably be a child of LogicException, while the 
former really is a RuntimeException...
