To what?

~* is known to have issues in multibyte encodings (eg UTF8).
Fixing this is on the TODO list, but nobody's thought of a
reasonably clean fix yet.

There is a partial solution in place for 9.0 --- it should work for
UTF8, though not for other multibyte encodings.  If you're feeling
desperate you could try backpatching this commit:

However the path of least resistance might be to use a single-byte
encoding in your database, such as LATIN1.
