[issue37106] python re.escape doesn't escape some special characters.

[Eric V. Smith]

Could you show a problem caused by the characters that are unescaped? I assume you're talking about the ` and ' characters, since that's what your example shows. But those aren't listed as "special characters" (https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/re.html#regular-expression-syntax), so I'm not sure what problem would be caused by them being unescaped.
