Actually, it's worse than not matching anything, it does this:

Software error:

SELECT login_name,realname,disabledtext FROM profiles WHERE login_name regexp'' 
ORDER BY login_name: Got error 'empty
(sub)expression' from regexp at globals.pl line 195. 

-> New Bugzilla Product

I don't know if this is limited to editusers.cgi, or if it's a concern in
buglist.cgi, too.
