First of all, I'm not an expert about regular expression syntax, however I believe there might be some strange bug when using ctRegex.

Consider the following code:

void main() {
         import std.regex: ctRegex, matchFirst;
     auto expression = ctRegex!("\bis\b");

auto expression = ctRegex!(`\bis\b`);

\b is bell escape code as per ASCII

Thanks a lot.
I forgot to put an r before the quotes. My silly mistake.
