      My test program outputs:

      str print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\w/"}}
JSON print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/w/"}}    <= WRONG?
str print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\ w/"}}
JSON print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\\w/"}}  <= WRONG?
str print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\\w/"}}
JSON print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\\w/"}}  <= OK
str print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\\ w/"}}
JSON print { "timestamp" : { "$regex" : "/\\ w/"}} <= OK
