Probably the same thing as in 3.0.3 and earlier is happening here: the
value is escaped before the regex match is tries. This means the value
that is being matched isn't 'Windows Phone\test', but 'Windows
Phone\\test'. To get the match you're looking for, you'll actually need
8 slashes (or upgrade to 3.0.4).
