Matthew Barnett added the comment:

There's a move to treat invalid escape sequences as an error (see issue 27364). 
The previous behaviour was to treat them as literals.

The replacement template string contains \d, which is not a valid escape 
sequence (it's valid for the pattern, but not the template).
