sure.  quoting from python-checkins:

RCS file: /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib/test/output/test_sre,v
...
  test_sre
- =3D=3D=3D Failed incorrectly ('\\x00ffffffffffffff', '\377', 0, =
'found', '\377')
  =3D=3D=3D Failed incorrectly ('^(.+)?B', 'AB', 0, 'g1', 'A')
...

still messes up on nested repetitions, but that's entirely
different problem...
