2518	RegEx with $ anchor not Perl-compatible	Chad Martin <chad.e.martin@…>	John Maddock	"If I try to match a string like ""WORD1 WORD2"" with boost::regex lastWordCapture(""(\\w+)$""); in order to capture WORD2, the regex_match fails.  If I modify the regex to "".*?(\\w+)$"", it works fine.  The following Perl code captures and prints WORD2 as expected.

$string = ""WORD1 WORD2"";
if ($string =~ /(\w+)$/){
    print ""$1\n"";
