Very strange. (And not just your matching a word with white-space in
it. ;-)
From presumed applicable regex doc:
http://www.pcre.org/pcre.txt
is this:
The \s characters are HT (9), LF (10), FF (12), CR (13), and space
(32).
Could rtf be creating any character outside that? Are you using any
interesting encoding? I know you have a workaround in the works, but
this is, uh, intriguing.
Are your examples that you type in and work all on one line?
