+Summary: Regex does not handle octal escapes starting with a value other than 0
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+
+Attempting to perform a regex search using octal escape characters that
+start with a digit other than 0 will generate an exception.
+
+Using mono 1.1.16.1
+
+e.g. \077 is ok, however \100 will throw an exception
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Using the following code
+
+using System;
+using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
+
+namespace Test
+{
+    public class TheRegex
+    {
+
+        public static void Main( string[] args )
+        {
+
+            Regex myRegex;
+            string inputString;
+            string resultString;
+
+            // this should replace the instance of \077 (0x003F)
+            // with the letter t
+
+            myRegex = new Regex( @"\077" );
+            inputString = "asdf\u003Fasdf";
+            resultString = myRegex.Replace( inputString, "t" );
+            Console.WriteLine( "[" + inputString + "] becomes [" +
+resultString + "]" );
+
+            // this should replace the instance of \100 (0x0040)
+            // with the letter t
+
+            myRegex = new Regex( @"\100" );
+            inputString = "asdf\u0040asdf";
+            resultString = myRegex.Replace( inputString, "t" );
+            Console.WriteLine( "[" + inputString + "] becomes [" +
+resultString + "]" );
+
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+
+2. Build the above code
+
+mcs testRegex.cs
+
+3. Execute the above code
+
+mono testRegex.exe
+  
+
+Actual Results:
+
+[asdf?asdf] becomes [asdftasdf]
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentException: parsing "\100" - Reference
+to undefined group number 100
+Parameter name: \100
+  at System.Text.RegularExpressions.Syntax.Parser.ResolveReferences ()
+[0x00000] 
+  at System.Text.RegularExpressions.Syntax.Parser.ParseRegularExpression
+(System.String pattern, RegexOptions options) [0x00000] 
+  at System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Init () [0x00000]

+RegexOptions options) [0x00000] 
+  at System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex..ctor (System.String pattern)
+[0x00000] 
+  at Test.TheRegex.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000] 
+
+
+Expected Results:
+
+[asdf?asdf] becomes [asdftasdf]
+[asdf?asdf] becomes [asdftasdf]
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+
+Everytime
+
+
+Additional Information:
+
+Have tested on .Net and the Expected Results are generated.
