lib/libc/regex : engine.c regex.3
Log message:
Change the way regexec handles REG_STARTEND combined with REG_NOTBOL.
The new code sees this combination as a continuation of string at offset
pmatch[0].rm_so, instead of a new string which starts at that offset.
This change fixes a search quirk in vi and is needed for upcoming fixes in
ed/sed/vi.
This new behaviour is also used in gnu regex.
Lots of help from schwarze@
