Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

The documentation doesn't look incorrect to me. The non-greedy match doesn't 
fallback to the greedy match, it always matches as few characters as *possible* 
will be matched. For example a.match("<a> b <c><span><d> e <f><span>") matches 
"<a> b <c><span>", not "<a> b <c><span><d> e <f><span>".
