Bash Version: 5.2
Patch Level: 37
Release Status: release
Description:
Bash's '=~' extended POSIX regex seems to behave very different to the
way grep's -E flag seems to deal with regular expressions.
Bash doesn't provide its own implementation of EREs: it uses whatever libc
supplies. I assume that's different from whatever `grep -E' uses.
