This change has broken build_trtable in regexec.c:

2006-04-09  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>

        Merge regex changes from libc, removing some of our
        POSIX-conformance changes that were rejected and redoing them in a
        less-intrusive way.

It's causing a write beyond object bounds, since ASCII_CHARS is greater
than sizeof (bitset_t):

          if (ASCII_CHARS % BITSET_WORD_BITS == 0)
            memset (accepts, -1, ASCII_CHARS);

Andreas.
