Bug #11197: POSIX matchers broken in Regexp

The POSIX matchers [[:alnum:]] and [[:alpha:]] in the Regexp class seem to be broken, as they successfully match all characters in the (example) string "ƧʂʶˢʵʃˎΓϊϨϢϟƍƍƧʂʶˢʵʃˎΓϊϨϢϟ".

[Hanmac (Hans Mackowiak)]

what do you expect ?

"Γ" for sample is "GREEK CAPITAL LETTER GAMMA"
means letter with is an alpha

so all of them are letters
