Comment (by Tom Forbes):

 I was investigating this and was surprised to see that `REGEXP BINARY
 '.*'` matched nothing when using MySQL 8. I thought there might be a bug
 with MySQL but could not find much online other than this cryptic commit
 entitled `Work around REGEXP BINARY not working correctly on MySQL 8 by
 using REGEXP_LIKE`:

 
https://github.com/jeremyevans/sequel/commit/ba3ea1c218d10bbab3f2b48039faedd4859865f8

 After copying the Oracle `regex_lookup` method which does exactly this all
 tests pass on 8, however the REGEXP_LIKE function does not exist in MySQL
 5.6.
