[boost] [regex] regex_replace with format string replaced as it is

Hi

when I use

template <class traits, class Allocator, class charT>
basic_string<charT> regex_replace(const basic_string<charT>& s,
          const basic_regex<charT, traits, Allocator>& e,
          const basic_string<charT>& fmt,
          match_flag_type flags = match_default);

is there a way to make the fmt string be substituted as IT is?

I mean if I specify "(\\)", for instance, I want that actually those 
four characters to be substituted for the occurrences of e in s, without 
any interpretation of ( and \.

Of cource I could escape both ( and \, but I was wondering if there's an 
option to avoid this.

thanks in advance
        Lorenzo
