Summary: regoff_t definition is wrong on 64-bit machines
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: regex
AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
ReportedBy: bugdal@aerifal.cx
Per POSIX
(http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/regex.h.html):
The <regex.h> header shall define the regoff_t type as a signed integer type
that can hold the largest value that can be stored in either a ptrdiff_t type
or a ssize_t type.
glibc defines regoff_t as int, even on 64-bit machines. This is non-conformant
and prevents regex routines from handling large strings.
The only fix I can see is to change it to long (like it should have always
been) and bump the symbol version on 64-bit targets...
