By default, rewrite parser supports only basic regular expressions.
To make it understand extended regexps, apply the following patch
to rewrite.y:

--- rewrite.orig        Wed Jan 30 12:28:45 2002
+++ rewrite.y   Wed Jan 30 12:22:56 2002

-        int rc = regcomp(&regex, str, 0);
+        int rc = regcomp(&regex, str, REG_EXTENDED);
         if (rc) {
                 char errbuf[512];
                 regerror(rc, &regex, errbuf, sizeof(errbuf));
