What exactly is the expected and what is actual output? 
Also, reproduce scripts should be as short as possible, start with

Description:
------------
It is impossible to iterate through the children of a tree structure
with a RecursiveRegexIterator combined with a
RecursiveIteratorIterator.

It only works when using the regex /A/, /r/ or /y/, because this
characters are in the word "Array".

See line 74 of ext/spl/internal/regexiterator.inc:
    
$subject = ($this->flags & self::USE_KEY) ? $this->key :
$this->current;

When iterating over an array of arrays (e.g. array[3] in the above
example) "$subject" gets the value of "$this->current". In the case of
an arraym this value will be "Array".

This explains, why in the above example the regex "/y/" works, while
"/v/" is not. "/y/" finds a match in "Array".
    
The methode "accept()" of the RegexIterator-Object should first check,
whether an array has children, when working on nested arrays. If a
nested array is found, there is no sense in matching the regex against
"Array".
    
Possible workaround could be adding the following lines above line 74
in ext/spl/internal/regexiterator.inc:
    
if (is_array($subject) == true) {
   return true;
}

Reproduce code:
---------------
$array = array();
$array[0] = 'one';
$array[1] = 'two';
$array[2] = 'three';
$array[3] = array('four', 'five', 'xxx', 'yyy');
$array[4] = 'six';
$array[5] = 'seven';

// Correct output: 
// "yyy - "
$recArrayIt = new RecursiveArrayIterator($array);
$recRegexIt = new RecursiveRegexIterator($recArrayIt, '/y/');
$recItIt    = new RecursiveIteratorIterator($recRegexIt);

foreach($recItIt as $element) {
    echo $element.' - ';
}

// Wrong output: "seven - "
// Should be   : "five - seven -"

$recArrayIt = new RecursiveArrayIterator($array);
$recRegexIt = new RecursiveRegexIterator($recArrayIt, '/v/');
$recItIt    = new RecursiveIteratorIterator($recRegexIt);

foreach($recItIt as $element) {
    echo $element.' - ';
}
