This is an upstream bug, due to findutils using an out-of-date regex library from gnulib. The gnulib regex library has fixed the bug in the meantime. I've reported this upstream. I'll see about getting a new findutils release soon, whether that means seeing if upstream will release 4.3.2 in the near future, or whether it means trying to patch the 4.3.1 tarball to use a newer snapshot of gnulib. But for your particular example, what's wrong with using the identical behavior of "-name '*.trc*'" instead of the faulting "-regex '.*[.]trc'"? -- Eric Blake volunteer cygwin findutils maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
