That's the historical (pre-boost if you will) name of the library.

You mean the introduction page?  If so the first code on that page is:

namespace boost{

template <class charT, 
          class traits = regex_traits<charT>, 
          class Allocator = std::allocator<charT> >
class reg_expression;

typedef reg_expression<char> regex;
typedef reg_expression<wchar_t> wregex;

}
