The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 18956
Logged by: Anudeep Vattikonda

PostgreSQL version: 17.5
Operating system: Mac
Description:
Hi
I am trying to run the below query
select REGEXP_COUNT('cat at the flat', '\Bat\b') ;
I was expecting it to return 2 but I see Postgres is returning 0. I see that
there are two matches, cat and flat. All it should do is to look for the
word at whose left side shoudn't be a word boundary while the right side
should be a word boundary
Thank you
