Perhaps you actually want:
@values_arr = $values =~ /.*$self->{DF_REGEXP}.*/
This will give you an array of the atomized matches in your regexp, and
you don't need to fool around with those backreferences. If you're not
really doing anything with those backreferences, you are just making busy
work for yourself trying to format that output.
