Problem Text This test may fail on all implementations. In tp45(), the following files are created for input to sed: # Create input data file sed_in_45_3 cat << \VSC-EOF > sed_in_45_3 \[a\[a-z]][,\*b\[xyz]]*p \[a\[a-z]][,\*a[abc]\*\.*p \[b\[xyz]][,\*a[abc]\*\.*p VSC-EOF # Create input data file sed_in_45_4 cat << \VSC-EOF > sed_in_45_4 1 a[a-z]] 3 b[xyz]] 5 XXX 1 a[a-z]] 3 b[xyz]] 5 XXX VSC-EOF Sed is then called like so: sed -n -f sed_in_45_3 sed_in_45_4 > $CT_STDOUT 2> $CT_STDERR Here is the problem: In the address "\[a\[a-z]][" ^ ^ ^ | | | #1 #2 #3 Bracket #1 is a delimiter. Bracket #2 is escaped with a backslash to indicate that it is not a delimiter. Bracket #3 is a delimiter. The resulting regular expression is "a[a-z]]". The test expects this regular expression to match the lines: a[a-z]] a[a-z]] But the backslash is used to indicate that bracket #2 is not a delimiter. It does not take away the bracket's meaning as a special character. In other words, the regular expression "a[a-z]]" should NOT match those lines; it should instead match the character 'a' followed by a character in the range 'a' - 'z', followed by the character ']'.
