Bobby,

Can you post the actual text you need this for? The back ref indeed
returns a None. I'm wondering if the regex can be be simplefied and if a
positive lookbehind could solve this.

Symantically speaking ... If there's a "b" then return the "ar", because
then an empty alternate might again be of help.

Kind regards,

Gerard.
