You're not missing anything, libgcj is.
It looks like the regex API methods are all implemented as throwing
NotImplementedError in libgcj for gcj 3.x.
It's not in gcj 3.4, but it was checked into the gcj project over two
years ago. Is the gcj project dead? The last news on its home page
is over a year old.
libgcj, the gcj java runtime, is based on the GNU classpath project which is
anything but dead (see http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath).
I checked the gcj 4.1.0 sources and the regex code with actual implementations
is in there. Building PyLucene with gcj 4.1.0 is possible on Mac OS X by using
darwinports to obtain gcj 4.1.0, and on Linux with a patch (see
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2006-03/msg00190.html).
As for Windows, well, I don't know of a functional gcj 4.x version, it seems
to need a bunch of work...
