Fix pasto in regcomp.c

Subject: Fix pasto in regcomp.c

This bug is an obvious pasto in parse_bracket_exp:

$ export LANG=C ; echo test123test | sed -e 's/[[:number:]]//g'
sed: -e expression #1, char 18: Memory exhausted

(of course it should have been [[:digit:]], but the error is weird...).
build_charclass returns REG_ECTYPE in that case, parse_bracket_exp assumes
it can only return REG_ENOSPACE.

The next version of sed, due next week (as soon as the gnu.org guys publish
it), will have a number of interesting XFAILed tests...
