Comment (by christophecvr):

 Replying to [comment:5 ryandesign]:
 > I know that. I was showing you the fix that had been proposed to
 upstream so that you might consider using that fix in your MacPorts PR.
 Instead you fixed the problem a different way. I have not analyzed the two
 fixes to determine if they are equivalent.

 Sorry I missed this comment of you, just found it now.
 Basically there is not much difference . There are two ways of changing
 that escape sequence.
 One way is using and r in front of the string or add an backslash to the
 escape sequence: \\

 {{{
 r'\s' or '\\s'
 }}}
 \\
  for escaping a more complicated escape sequence like '\< ... >' it's best
 to use (in python)

 {{{
 r'\<...>'
 }}}

 Else it is much easier to use a double backslash

 In the patch they used only the r option I used both. Since my change was
 tested very extensive I kept my solution.
