Summary: re searches don't work with 4-byte unico
Initial Comment:
For Python 2.2.1 or the CVS head, as of this posting,
with Python configured for 4-byte unicode
(--enable-unicode=ucs4)
searches against unicode regular expressions that use
characters above \xff don't seem to work.
Here's an example:
invalid_xml_char = re.compile(u'[\ud800-\udfff]')
invalid_xml_char.search(u'\ud800')
returns None, rather than a match.

This is now fixed for Python 2.3, with _sre.c 2.89.

Added a work-around in sre_compile 1.44 and 1.41.14.2: it
disables big charsets for UCS-4 builds.
I leave this report open, so that a proper fix can be designed.

I could reproduce this behaviour exactly. No idea what is
causing it, though.
