I am implementing ACLs with KAuth in the file operation scope, and I would like to use regular expressions without having to implement they myself. The configuration for the ACLs need to match, for example /etc/p*....

Kauth does not do what you're asking for, and the sandbox stuff is kernel-space.
Perhaps if you explained what you were actually trying to do, we could offer more help.

You can accomplish your example by using Sandbox in Leopard and later releases. It provides a flexible mechanism for defining what operating system resources a process may or may not obtain. Unfortunately, that mechanism is not API, and may change from release to release.
I though Apple's sandbox was a "voluntary" thing, where the application chooses to sandbox itself, and if it doesn't call the sandbox APIs itself, then no sandboxing. (???)
That’s correct, but the sandbox is inherited. Therefore, a parent can force its child into the sandbox.
$ sandbox-exec -p '(version 1) (allow default) (deny file-read* file-write* (regex #"^/private/etc/p"))' zsh
So it looks like you are putting zsh in a sandbox, and then wc just inherits that sandbox when it is launched from zsh. Is that correct?
Yep.
