I thought I made this clear in my original post.

I want to use this regex in inreplace:

s/AC_INIT\(\[tmux\],
(next-[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)\)/AC_INIT([tmux], \1 (${version}))/g

No matter how I tried to escape it, it didn't work. But I don't have to
now, since you gave me this awesome workaround.

Problem solved. All good. End of story. I just meant that others could
benefit from this workaround as well. Thus my suggestion to add it to
the documentation. That's all.

Cheers,
  K. C.
