If busybox is compiled with FEATURE_VI_REGEX_SEARCH enabled, command
":s/x/y/" searches not only in the current line, but continues search
after it. This makes range searches (":1,3s/x/y/") work incorrect. For
example file "./test" :
1
2
3
$vi ./test
:1,2s/3/e/
gives us :
1
2
e
This error affects versions at least since 1.23, simple patches for
1.27.2 and 1.29.3 attached, I can check other versions, if necessary.
Patches must be applied to "editors/vi.c"
