[PyPy-issue] [issue627] re.match behaves differently

[Holger Krekel]

New submission from Holger Krekel <holger at merlinux.eu>:

The following expression provides a "Match" object on CPython (2.6, 2.7) but
fails, i.e. returns None, on PyPy-1.4.1 and current default: 

re.match(r'\A(?P<base>.*?\.?\s*)?(?P<attrname>[_a-zA-Z][\w\ _]*)?\Z',
"rlcompelter2.")
