----------------------------------------
Regexp.last_match returns nil, if // is given to String#rindex:

```
lexington:ruby$ ruby -ve 'p "foo".rindex(//); p Regexp.last_match'
ruby 2.5.0dev (2017-01-17 trunk 57359) [x86_64-linux]
3
nil
```

while it returns a MatchData with String#index:

```
lexington:ruby$ ruby -ve 'p "foo".index(//); p Regexp.last_match' 
ruby 2.5.0dev (2017-01-17 trunk 57359) [x86_64-linux]
0
#<MatchData "">
```

Is this intended behavior?
