Thanks. I added a comment here: https://github.com/dlang/phobos/issues/10152

I understand that this is an open source project, but it's very strange that this bug hasn't been fixed for 10 years. It doesn't give a good impression about the future of the language.

as much as I criticize documenting bugs via technically-correct indirect declarations like this "using Thompson NFA matching scheme" or 300 pages of arguments about what is correct by referencing a spec and fuck ton of complexity rather then just working.

Prefect coverage of edge cases of regex would not make my list for important libs. Std's should be be for data structures and algorithms, let us judge the health of the language how well thats going.
