Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I got this error many times when i read my mail with gnus via
pop3. Gnus read data from pop3 server in binary mode and some time
this bug lead to loss my letters.

to reproduce this i write test case (in attachment). To reproduce you
need open test.el in emacs and eval it twice (i can't understand why
it not worked in first pass). file emacs-test-mail.txt must be in one
dir with test.el - it is my test mail letter. after eval you got two
buffers -- *test-case* with results of command output, and
*test-result* with results of regexp match (buggy). 

This error arise only when exists small russian char 'r', and also
exists char '.' in end of string. so "^\\.\r\r" will match full
string.
