    http://www.regular-expressions.info/refflavors.html lists the way that
    various regular expression engines handle Unicode characters (search for the
    Unicode Characters section). More details are given at
    http://www.regular-expressions.info/unicode.html.

    Oracle uses \xxxx within the UNISTR function (see
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/appdev.102/b25108/xedev_global.htm#i1006315
    ).
