Subject: An assertion is hit when processing "(|()()0)\2" extended regular
 expression
Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2018 18:00:56 +0300

Hello,

When processing a simple extended regular expression, GNU grep hits an
assertion. This is reproducible on the latest commit from master
branch 51dacfb (Sep 19).

$ export LC_ALL=C
$ gdb -q --args ./grep -E "(|()()0)\2"
Reading symbols from ./grep...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
(gdb) r
Starting program: /path/to/grep -E \(\|\(\)\(\)0\)\\2
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
grep: regexec.c:1342: pop_fail_stack: Assertion `num >= 0' failed.
