Comment:

 That RegEx has always been that way -
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-
 admin/import/wordpress.php?rev=3769

 Reviewing the code the danger with this change is that we don't always
 call get_tag with such a targeted string as we do with post meta.

 It maybe best to keep the current non-greedy regex for now and fix this
 issue with a XML parser based importer.
