From the perlre man page: 

       graph
           Any alphanumeric or punctuation (special) character.

       print
           Any alphanumeric or punctuation (special) character or the space
           character.

       punct
           Any punctuation (special) character.

That is, as in [:graph:], [:print:], and [:punct:].  For example,
[\s\w[:punct:]] should be equivalent to [\s[:graph:]] which should
be equivalent to [:print:].  We need to update the documentation
for the supported syntax because I see POSIX and POSIX-like character
classes are not listed at
http://jakarta.apache.org/oro/api/org/apache/oro/text/regex/package-summary.html
