Note that regexp location is *NOT* the same thing.  Location given 
by regular expressions are quite different from "selecting 
matching location" perspective.

E.g. for request "/aaa" this configuration will select "location = 
/aaa":

    location ~ a { ... }
    location = /aaa { ... }
    location = /bbb { ... }

But this one will select "location ~ a" instead:

    location ~ a { ... }
    location ~ ^/(aaa|bbb)$ { ... }
