[Edinburgh-pm] Dumb regex question

Hi Guys,
Ok, I need to find all words that have a lower case letter followed by
an upper case one. I cannot seem to get it to work. Here is my
attempt. Note that this must be in Unicode because I have data with
accent marks in it.
my @words = ("díne", "láechreraig", "caínConchobor");
foreach my $word (@words) {
if($word =~ m/\p{IsLower}(?=\p{IsUpper})/) {
print "$word\n";
}
}
The only word here that should be matched is "caínConchobor" and words
like it. Right now the regex matches all the words which isn't what I
was expecting.
Thanks,
Chris
