Strange, it works here (RHEL 6, x86_64, PostgreSQL 9.2.2,
encoding "UTF8", collation and ctype "de_DE.UTF8"):
test=> SELECT 'ПРОВЕРКА' ~ '^[\u0410-\u042F]{2,}$';
?column?
----------
t
(1 row)
test=> SELECT 'ABCDE' ~ '^[\u0410-\u042F]{2,}$';
?column?
----------
f
(1 row)

This works for me as well:
test=> SELECT 'ошибббка' ~ '(.)\1\1'
AND 'ошибббка' NOT LIKE '%ШЕЕЕ%'
AND 'ошибббка' NOT LIKE '%ЗМЕЕЕ%';
?column?
----------
t
(1 row)
test=> SELECT 'ошиббка' ~ '(.)\1\1'
AND 'ошиббка' NOT LIKE '%ШЕЕЕ%'
AND 'ошиббка' NOT LIKE '%ЗМЕЕЕ%';
?column?
----------
f

What do you get for
SELECT pg_encoding_to_char(encoding),
datcollate,
datctype
FROM pg_database WHERE datname = current_database();
and for
SHOW client_encoding;
