I think it is awesome that you're fixing these regex bugs.
This area remains a sore spot for Classpath -- GNU regex has various
flaws, and our attempt to use JRegex instead seems to have
permanently stalled.

Anyway, last night I was wondering whether there are regex test suites
that we could reuse... like maybe from perl or Henry Spencer or
something like that.
