Just specify 'g' as the flags parameter (the 4th one). It means 'globally'.

SELECT regexp_replace('xaxx', 'x', 'e', 'g');

There are more of this flags described here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/functions-matching.html#POSIX-EMBEDDED-OPTIONS-TABLE

p.s. The question is for hackers - BTW I did not find 'g' in this
table, is it a docs bug?
