You've explained that the division of the regexp documentation caused
a problem for you.  I understand the kind of problem you describe,
but I don't understand why the problem happened.

You ask for these two nodes to be combined.

  * Regexps::                   Syntax of regular expressions.
  * Regexp Backslash::          Regular expression constructs starting with ‘\’.

What version of the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual were
you looking at?  From which Emacs version?

The current master version has a subsection called
Syntax of Regexps, which has these three subsubsections:

* Regexp Special::      Special characters in regular expressions.
* Char Classes::        Character classes used in regular expressions.
* Regexp Backslash::    Backslash-sequences in regular expressions.

Does this change in structure fix the problem?
