OK I see the problem: when you sub-script the RegEx object you get the n'th
sub-expression of the *last match found* in the last operation.  If you dump
the results in the vector you will see that a large number of matches were
indeed found.  You could pass a vector<std::sting> to Grep to get the actual
strings that matched, or if you need more information then you'll have to
use a callback function.

Finally note that this is a legacy interface that is deprecated.  There are
now better alternatives, for example regex_iterator or regex_token_iterator.

John.
