Your code works fine on git HEAD, so it seems that this is a bug in
std.regex that has since been fixed. It may not do what you *want*,
though -- be aware that in the next release, match() will be deprecated
and replaced by matchFirst and matchAll, which are more precise in what
exactly you want to match.

In any case, assertions inside Phobos code is most likely a Phobos bug,
since it means that you've somehow managed to get it to go down a code
path that the author thought would never happen.
