There are a couple textscan bugs:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50485
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?52479

the latter of which has a patch.  textscan() is fairly popular so it 
might be nice to address those before a release in order to avoid 
redundant bug reports, unless it doesn't really reach critical status 
for minor releases.
