[issue35072] re.sub does not play nice with chr(92)

[Matthew Barnett]

Matthew Barnett <python at mrabarnett.plus.com> added the comment:

@Ezio: the value of stringy_thingy is irrelevant because it never gets that far; it fails when it tries to parse the replacement, which occurs before attempting any matching.

I can't reproduce the difference either.
