Issue #9450 has been updated by Erik Dalén.

A regexp function wouldn't really work as that would also allow you to store 
regexps in variables and use them where ever you can use variables.

----------------------------------------
Bug #9450: variables embedded in regexps are not expanded

This doesn't define the notify resource:

<pre>
$foo = "bar"
$bar = "bar"
if $bar =~ /$foo/ {
   notify { bar: message=>"BAR"; }
}
</pre>

It seems that variables within regexps are not being expanded.  This is a 
problem for us as we're trying to define new resources that check facts for 
parameterised content via a regexp.
