May I humbly request inclusion of a patch I wrote almost a year ago? http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31858 |31858|New|Maj|2004-10-22|regular expression matching broken on amd64 It is not a feature request; it fixes a crashing bug on AMD64. This has been discussed, has been validated, and is included in Gentoo (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70177) and probably other distributions.
I have applied the patch to trunk. I would encourage all to update their copies and cd into src/regex and 'make r' to run regression tests on the patched tree. I have confirmed no regressions on the systems I have access to (Sol8, OS X/Darwin) and will be looking at Suse 9.2 soonish.
