<pre>The RegExp constructor has two magic static properties, named "multiline" and "$*", that don't seem to have any observable effect.
They exist on V8 also, with no observable effect as well, see: <a href="https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3870">https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=3870</a>
They do have an effect in SpiderMonkey, but it is expected to remove them: <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1219757">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1219757</a></pre>
