I think you may have meant with the line
"echo NO MATCH <BR>"
for
echo "NO MATCH<BR>";
But I can not reproduce the problem yet.
Can you give us a more accurate script to confirm the bug?
Hint: var_dump( mb_ereg_match( ... ) ); will do it easier.

Just a comment.
When you submit bug. Submit with "complete" script that is possible to
copy & page, then execute.
It will speed up bug fix.

Seems like mbstring function is borked in 4.2.3 :)
mb_ereg_match doesn't seem to be returning a proper FALSE value when
passed to a conditional statement.
BUT, the return value is an empty string which *should* evaluate to
flase no?
Following output and code illustrate:
OUTPUT:
RETURN was **
a is FALSE
CODE:
if (mb_ereg_match("A", "X")) {
echo "MATCHES <BR>";
}
else {
"echo NO MATCH <BR>";
}
$a = mb_ereg_match("A", "X");
echo "RETURN was *$a*<BR>";
if ($a) {
}
else {
echo "a is FALSE<BR>";}
exit;
