The space character at the end of the string is actually U+2006 SIX-PER-EM SPACE (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2006/index.htm) I think the reason for the discrepancy is that in v10 we fixed the regex locale support so that it could properly classify code points above U+7FF, cf https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git&a=commitdiff&h=c54159d44ceaba26ceda9fea1804f0de122a8f30 So 10 is giving the right answer (i.e. that \s matches U+2006). 9.x is not, but we're not going to back-patch such a large change. regards, tom lane
