What' going on here is that the package was expecting to have gnu regex that supports \w out of the box. Our old regex code just ignored \<characters> that it did not understand, so it was not working correctly either; it was just ignoring the error. The current regex code will work properly if you pass REG_GNU in regcomp(). This is not the default behavior.
