Hello folks,

a month ago I made some remarks and complaints on this
list concerning failing regular expressions for Bering.
Some moments ago I uploaded two source files

   /devel/meand/testtools/test_regex.c

   /devel/meand/testtools/test_regex.sh

that perform 48 identical tests, one source file using
library calls, the other one using 'egrep'. The code
is conceived for general operating systems, but using
uClibc-0.9.28 or uClibc-0.9.29/regex_old there are
eleven failures out of fortyeight clauses. In contrast,
uClibc-0.9.29/"regex_new" is able to correctly get all
fortyeight matches. One month ago I reported this to the
uClibc list, thereby including test_regex.c, but nobody
has reacted, so for the sake of Bering-uClibc, either we
develop a private patch, or leave matters broken!

The output of both programs is identical and is verbose.

Best regards

Mats Erik A
