Summary: SRE: word-based anchors ignore locale

Initial Comment:
the \b and \B anchors don't take the locale
settings into account.

import locale, re
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")

# should print ["egg", "and"]
print re.findall(r"\b...\b", "spam, egg, bacon, and 
едц")

# should print ["egg", "and", "едц"]
print re.findall(r"(?L)\b...\b", "spam, egg, bacon, 
and едц")
