There was some NetSurf/regexec() issue before:

Not sure how that got fixed, but he did get it working, iirc.
That does at least appear to be exactly the same crash, so I'd be very
interested to find out how it was resolved.
I'm not sure I have any recollection of it being solved, tbh. None of us
have been able to reproduce it, so it's somewhat difficult to work out
what's happening. My best guess is that the regex implementation you're
using objects to the input we're giving it, which is odd, as the input is
perfectly valid extended POSIX regex. You may like to experiment to
discover if the regex implementation you're using actually supports
REG_EXTENDED properly, or if it's limited to basic POSIX regex.

There's not much to go on there, I'm afraid.
