Subject: [PATCH] Avoid character classification in regex escape parsing.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

For regex escape sequences, just test directly for the relevant ASCII
characters rather than using locale-sensitive character
classification.

This fixes an assertion failure when a locale considers a non-ASCII
character, such as "൧", to be a digit.
