No it doesn't break. On the opposite, that was a bug, and you just solved it!

Bah, the pattern was not right anyway. Escaping the () *is* needed, you're
right, but I also missed that a function name (which I try to match here) may
have more than one char! So the correct pattern becomes:
$0~/^[^ ]+ \(\)/ { _p = 0; }

Thank you for pointing this out! I will commit shortly.
