Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0                                              |   Component:  regex      
  Version:  Boost 1.38.0                                              |    Severity:  Problem    
 Keywords:  Regex \{ \[ \] \} assign                                  |  
----------------------------------------------------------------------+-----
 Boost::regex::assign throws an exception on "[A-Za-z_:,=\t\{\[\]\}]"
 when it should not. The offending text within the text(heh) is
 "[SomeMatchText\{\[\]\}]SomeMatchText]". It does not matter where in the
 text "\{\[\]\}" is located it will always throw an exception if provided
 in that order.

 However, if you do "[\}SomeMatchText\{\[\]]" it will not throw an
 exception. I haven't tried other split combinations.

 This bug was noticed in version 1.38, the changelogs do not seem to
 indicate this bug being fixed.
