Bug description:  preg_replace error when using \W

Description:
------------
According to regexp sintax [\W] is identical to [^A-Za-z0-9_] (can see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1400241x(VS.85).aspx)

But preg_replace does not seem to work the same way.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
   //according to regexp sintax [\W] is identical to [^A-Za-z0-9_] (can
see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1400241x(VS.85).aspx)
   
   $result1 = preg_replace('/[^A-Za-z0-9_]*/', '', "test àèìòù test");
   $result2 = preg_replace('/[\W]*/', '', "test àèìòù test");
      
   echo "<pre>" . $result1 . "</pre>"; //ok, it shows: "testtest"
   echo "<pre>" . $result2 . "</pre>" //wrong it shows: "testàèìòùtest"
?>

Expected result:
----------------
testtest

testtest

Actual result:
--------------
testtest

testàèìòùtest
