Re: Sync gnulib regex with glibc

It does look like a correct change, but what I am worried from glibc

I doubt whether that would be needed (or, as Zack writes, helpful) in this case. (Neither RE_SYNTAX_GREP nor RE_SYNTAX_EGREP are documented in any way, amusingly enough, so one cannot say we're changing documented behavior....)
