I just re-tested this issue in trunk at changeset 053bc5ca199b and the issue is
still exactly reproducible as originally reported. That is, the match to the
empty string skips a character of the match:
>>> import re
>>> [m.groups() for m in re.finditer(r'(^z*)|(\w+)', 'abc')]
[('', None), (None, 'bc')]
