That patch looks good, thanks. I confirmed that I receive the same
output when running './regexprops "Regular Expressions" generic'.

I'll send you a patch later to fix 'make syntax-check' after the Gnulib
update in Findutils.

Paul, just to confirm, the goal is to change RE_SYNTAX_EMACS in glibc? I
think that is what you meant here [1]:

I assume it will have to wait until the next release. But it feels a bit
strange to have RE_SYNTAX_EMACS not match what current Emacs does, and
not match the updated documentation.

Thanks,
Collin
