In the code, the token_re_cache is used to cache regular expressions. But
it appears nothing is ever put into the cache. A good thing too, as
token_re should be recreated each time during compilation otherwise its
lastIndex property isn't reset to 0. At least, I think that's what's going
on (I was wondering how it could work with the cache in the first place;
turned out the cache doesn't work).

Good catch, thanks. I guess I should just get rid of the cache because the
lack of the caching apparently hasn't any issues for anyone.

I can't imagine that anyone would compile more than 10 or 100 templates per
page, and it's probably negligible then. I think it was a carryover from
Python, where you could imagine a huge server loading thousands of
templates.
