An empty capture before the end of the string seems to work fine:

    auto m = match( "abc", "ab(.*)c" );
    writefln( "'%s'", m.captures[1] );

-> ''


An empty capture at the end of a string results in the following assert error:

    auto m = match( "abc", "abc(.*)" );
    writefln( "'%s'", m.captures[1] );

->
core.exception.AssertError@c:\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos\std\regex.d(1705):
1

In Captures.length :

        @property size_t length()
        {
            foreach (i; 0 .. matches.length)
            {
                if (matches[i].startIdx >= input.length) return i;
            }
            return matches.length;
        }

The test will fail for an empty capture at the end because startIdx == endIdx == input.length. This seems like it should be a valid case and the following change seems to resolve the issue:

                if (matches[i].startIdx > input.length) return i;

Mass migration of bugs marked as x86-64 to just x86.  The platform run on isn't what's relevant, it's if the app is a 32 or 64 bit app.
