Comment #1 on issue 2436 by math...@qiwi.be: Surrogate pairs are not accepted in regular expression character ranges
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2436

Like you said, this is not a V8 bug. IMHO this ticket can be closed.

Full Unicode support in regular expressions is scheduled for ES6 through the `/u` flag: http://norbertlindenberg.com/2012/05/ecmascript-supplementary-characters/index.html#RegExp

Meanwhile, use something like Regenerate (http://mths.be/regenerate) to easily generate regular expressions that deal with astral Unicode symbols:

regenerate.fromSymbolRange('\uDB40\uDD00', '\uDB40\uDDEF');
'\\uDB40[\\uDD00-\\uDDEF]'
regenerate.fromCodePointRange(0xE0100, 0xE01EF);
'\\uDB40[\\uDD00-\\uDDEF]'

For your example, it seems like the regular expression you were looking for is `/\uDB40[\uDD00-\uDDEF]/`.
