[Boost-users] regex v4: regex_replace fails on trivial case

Hi all,

regex_replace("XX",regex("X", boost::regex::literal), "Y")

returns "YXY" instead of "YY" whereas the (even more) trivial case

regex_replace("X",regex("X", boost::regex::literal), "Y")

returns "Y" as expected.
 
I am using boost_1_31_0 compiled with VC6(SP5). In addition, I have 
applied the patches from the package 
boost-1.31.0-regex-patch-20040503.

What is going wrong here?

Bernd
