Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When replacing the pattern \\b (word boundary) with X for the string a\nb, Python and Java produce XaX\nXbX and cuDF produces XXXa\nb.
>>> re.sub('\\b', 'X', 'a\nb')
'XaX\nXbX'>>> cudf.Series(['a\nb']).str.replace('\\b', 'X', regex=True)
0 XXXa\nbDescribe the solution you'd like
I would like the ability to match Python/Java behavior in this case.
