It was written in a post in this forum (or ruby core) I think from 
Yusuke Endoh about the coming 1.9.2 release. You have to replace \d by 
\p{Digit}, and similarly for \s, and the like... Sad perspective.

Look at the beautiful example !

RangeReg = 
/\A(\p{Digit}+|\p{Digit}+\.\.\p{Digit}+)(,\p{Space}*(\p{Digit}+|\p{Digit}+\.\.\p{Digit}+))*\Z/
