Laravel3 Validator: the "match:" rule is not seeing the closing delimiter. Is it a bug?

We have a content type which has been confirmed to match this regex:

When trying 'match:"/([0-9]{4}|[0-9]{2}[+]{1})/"', L3 throws a "no ending delimiter '/' found" exception.

Am I doing something wrong, or is there a limitation in L3 I'm bumping up against, or is this a bug??

By the way out input regex can be simplified to `/([0-9]{4}|[0-9]{2}\+)/`. – rekire Jun 17 '13 at 18:31

@CasimiretHippolyte Thanks for that link. That looks like it should work. Thanks-a-bunch! – mOrloff Jun 17 '13 at 19:37
@rekire Thanks ... I knew there was a more succinct solution, but didn't know exactly how to get there. Thanks again. – mOrloff Jun 17 '13 at 19:39
