Bash Version: 4.1
Patch Level: 2
Release Status: release

Description:

    The [[ str =~ "^pattern" ]] operator no longer works correctly.  "^"
    is treated as a literal instead of matching the beginning of the line.

Repeat-By:

    [[ "-h" =~ '^-h' ]] ; echo $?
    Should return 0, but instead returns 1.
