'=~' crash on NetBSD

Show key headers only | View raw

On NetBSD, bash (all versions, including current git) dumps core when 
using [[ to match against an ERE containing certain UTF-8 characters, 
for example, É ($'\303\211').

| $ bin/bash-5.0-debug -c "[[ c =~ $'\303\211' ]]"
|
| malloc: unknown:0: assertion botched
| malloc: 0x81ba08: allocated: last allocated from unknown:0
| free: start and end chunk sizes differ
| Aborting...Abort trap (core dumped)

If it helps, here's a backtrace generated from the core file by 'gdb'. 
It seems to suggest that only the first byte of the UTF-8 character is 
included in the pattern...
