This patch fixes a number of escaping bugs in sre (the
re module).  The most serious is an infinite loop in
the parser, which is what the submitter of bug #776311
was seeing.  Another allows octal escapes to have an
arbitrary number of digits--the doc didn't quite
exclude this, but it's clearly the wrong thing (cf.
string literals).  There are others--see the test cases.
