Regexp fails to match string with '<' when encoding is UTF-8

Description

=begin
Hi,

There is an issue matching a string like "a b c d<" when the encoding of the file is set to UTF-8 and the regexp is attempting to match 'something'. Afaik, *< is not special in the encoding.

This gist illustrates the issue:

Thanks,
