New submission from py.user <port...@yandex.ru>:
>>> import re
>>> re.search(r'(?<=a){100,200}bc', 'abc', re.DEBUG)
max_repeat 100 200
assert -1
literal 97
literal 98
literal 99
<_sre.SRE_Match object at 0xb7429f38>
>>> re.search(r'(?<=a){100,200}bc', 'abc', re.DEBUG).group()
'bc'
>>>
I expected "nothing to repeat"
