Backreferences are listed as a "possible extension or alternative" in RFC #2115, so the examples should not include them. This is further reinforced by commit c20ea6d, which appears to have been intended to remove all instances of backreferences in the examples, but missed these. (Note, in particular, that the commit removed the backreferences in the example in the Summary section, and the two lines fixed in this PR are identical to two of the lines changed in that commit.)
