This is actually related to #175. If we merge this, I'd guess we are committing to this syntax. Which doesn't seem that bad.

Hm, if [:alpha:] is not a character class by itself, then there is no confusion at all. So looks like changing [:alpha:] to [[:alpha:]] would be a more fundamental fix for the problem.

@matklad I'm going to fix #175 instead, so I think we can close this. Thanks anyway!
