a possible fix is attached, the handling of ^ and $
in BRE is suboptimal, but that will need a bigger
refactoring.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix * at the start of a BRE subexpression
commit 7eaa76fc2e7993582989d3838b1ac32dd8abac09 made * invalid at
the start of a BRE subexpression, but it should be accepted as
literal * there according to the standard.
This patch does not fix subexpressions starting with ^*.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix ^* at the start of a complete BRE
This is a workaround to treat * as literal * at the start of a BRE.
Ideally ^ would be treated as an anchor at the start of any BRE
subexpression and similarly $ would be an anchor at the end of any
subexpression. This is not required by the standard and hard to do
with the current code, but it's the existing practice. If it is
changed, * should be treated as literal after such anchor as well.
