PCRE2 no longer implements `\w` correctly

Open Aloso opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The behavior of \w (and \b) changed: It now includes all code points in the N general category, not just Nd

See https://github.com/PCRE2Project/pcre2/blob/master/ChangeLog

What should we do? Should we polyfill it? This is unlikely to be a problem for many people.
