New submission from Michał Leśniewski <mlesn...@gmail.com>:
If a regular expression ends with a backslash, an exception is raised. Of
course, the backslash has to be escaped. The simplest example, that causes the
error is a regular expression, that should match only a single backslash:
import re
r = re.compile("\\")
