And another, bit less pathological, testcase. Sorry for the ugly testcase; it
was much worse before I boiled it down :-)
$ cat test.py
import re, regex
text = "\nTest\nxyz\nxyz\nEnd"
regexp = '(\nTest(\n+.+?){0,2}?)?\n+End'
print re.findall(regexp, text)
print regex.findall(regexp, text)
$ python test.py
[('\nTest\nxyz\nxyz', '\nxyz')]
[('', '')]
