pattern matching on strings containing RE literals fails

           Summary: pattern matching on strings containing RE literals fails
           Product: Regexp
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The following examples contain html characters and may therefore be invisible 
in a browser:

RE: <title>.*</title> - matches <title>My HTML page</title>
RE: <!--.*--> - does not match:
<!--[if supportFields]> DOCPROPERTY &quot;Author&quot; \* CHARFORMAT <![endif]--
>
in the above string
RE: <!--\[if.*DOC - does not match anything either

it seems to be because of the presence of RE specific literals in the string 
like [,\ and *?
