It works in pcretest:

$ pcretest ~/tmp/zz
PCRE version 7.4 2007-09-21

/^\*\*\*\*\s*Starting\s*FICS\s*session\s*as\s*([^*]+)\*\*\*\*$/m
**** Starting FICS session as foobar ****    
 0: **** Starting FICS session as foobar ****
 1: foobar 


Even when that is not the first line:

$ pcretest ~/tmp/zz
PCRE version 7.4 2007-09-21

/^\*\*\*\*\s*Starting\s*FICS\s*session\s*as\s*([^*]+)\*\*\*\*$/m
ABCD\n**** Starting FICS session as foobar ****\nXYZ
0: **** Starting FICS session as foobar ****
1: foobar
