What you're looking for are perl regular expressions and they are
only available if nano is built against the perl regex library which
apparently it isn't.
There isn't any configure option to use pcre from nano, and including
pcreposix.h instead of regex.h strangely produces compilation errors.
I'll take a deeper look and produce a nano-2.0.8 package ASAP.
