I just re-tested this issue in trunk at changeset 053bc5ca199b and the issue is still exactly reproducible as originally reported. That is, the match to the empty string skips a character of the match: >>> import re >>> [m.groups() for m in re.finditer(r'(^z*)\|(\w+)', 'abc')] [('', None), (None, 'bc')]
