i think this line should be

https://gist.github.com/petermblair/2294250#file-cidr2regex-py-L51

return '(' + '|'.join(gen_classes()) + ')'

I suggest checking out this derived version:

I dug down through all the forks and found this one to be the most promising. Hope this saves other people time!
