It looks like it might be a glibc bug: #0 0xb7eb2c1f in *__GI_memcpy (dstpp=0x8075b48, srcpp=0xbfb7ba24, len=4294967295) at ../sysdeps/generic/memcpy.c:55 #1 0xb7ee3aab in build_wcs_upper_buffer (pstr=0xbfb7bbc8) at regex_internal.c:424 #2 0xb7ee3ee3 in re_string_reconstruct (pstr=0xbfb7bbc8, idx=163, eflags=<value optimized out>) at regex_internal.c:726 #3 0xb7eea1cc in re_search_internal (preg=0x8075278, string=0x807e1c5 "", length=<value optimized out>, start=134699848, range=349, stop=349, nmatch=1, pmatch=0x8075f78, eflags=0) at regexec.c:797 #4 0xb7eeb2af in re_search_stub (bufp=0x8075278, string=0x807e1c5 "", length=349, start=0, range=349, stop=-1, regs=0x8075298, ret_len=0) at regexec.c:454 #5 0xb7eeb7c3 in __re_search (bufp=0xffffffff, string=0x8075b48 "????\204???????????", length=1073738376, start=0, range=0, regs=0x0) at regexec.c:318 #6 0x08058666 in EGexecute () #7 0x0804ab02 in grepbuf () #8 0x0804b4b0 in grepfile () #9 0x0804d0b4 in main () Justin
