"Match whole word", "Match from start of word" and "Use escape sequences" do not apply to regexes, so those settings are made insensitive (greyed out) when regex is set. Insensitive UI items cannot be changed which is why it behaves the way you observed. It is not a bug, its the way the toolkit works.
