Add to BRE Expression Anchoring (P 187 after line 6674) as small NOTE:
NOTE: Given the widespread adoption of some sort of special character sequence
for matching the beginning and end of string in other languages, a future
version of this standard is likely to require such characters to be supported in
a regular expression. Implementors are encouraged to provide this as an
extension using "\A" for the beginning and "\z" for the end of strings as they
are already in widespread use for this purpose in other languages.

Add the same note to ERE Expression Anchoring page 190 after line 6811.
