Sorry, I should have been more specific. In glibc regex, \s is a synonym
for [[:space:]] and \S is a synonym for [^[:space:]], so the discussion
in regex.texi of @samp{\s@var{class}} etc. is wrong on a syntactic level
not just a semantic level.

Sorry, I don't follow. The concrete example given is: \Sw matches any character that is
not word-constituent. That seems to be [^[:alnum:]]?
