--- Comment #3 from Nadav Har'El <nyh at math dot technion.ac.il> ---
I think this issue is more accurately a duplicate of
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=86164.
That bug is very sad, it has been open for seven years now and has led to a
mass exodus from std::regex to boost::regex which doesn't have this bug -
because it's a serious bug with serious symptoms (crash) that applications have
no way to avoid:
Issue 61601 was a less serious issue because it was about a very complex
regular expression, which users can simply avoid. But issue 86164 and the one
reported here is much more serious: Here the regular expression is simple - but
the user input is just longer, something which is hard for applications to
avoid. Even worse - the failure mode isn't some sort of clean "error", it is an
outright crash of the application.
