Summary: replace_all, replace_body_all, subst anchor bug

Initial Comment:
Hi!

The replace_all, replace_body_all and subst functions all fail to match the beginning of the next line, when the last match ended with a newline.

e.g. when trying to remove the three lines
-------------------- 8< --------------------
a=alt:1 3 : xmv2v5mo ix7lpuPK 137.208.90.150 13726.
a=alt:2 2 : lPFc4bEV udepPIjW 192.168.217.1 13726.
a=alt:3 1 : 4o1caMp2 9P6XBBmd 192.168.172.1 13726.
-------------------- 8< --------------------

... replace_body_all("^a=alt:.*\r\n","") will remove only the first and the third line, it won't match the second line.

The reason is that after the first match, eflags|=REG_NOTBOL is set, so that in all subsequent matches, "^" won't match the beginning of the string. Unfortunately, since the last match ended with a newline, "^" _should_ match at the beginning of the string in this case.

Maybe the REG_NOTBOL flag should be set depending on the last character before the next match starts?

This bug is also present in subst_run() of re.c in the openser core.

I've attached a patch that fixes the problem for me.
(Not very well tested.)

Cheers,
--leo

Hi Alexander,

I was reviewing the patch and it looks correct for me excepting one thing:
when setting/resetting the flag you test to see if the position is not the
start one: "if (p==input || *(p-1)=='\n')" . But I think p cannot equal
input anytime as this test is done after the first run of regexec and p
will point at the end of the matched string (which cannot be empty). So
p!=input all the time.....But maybe I'm missing something...:)

Thanks and regards,
Bogdan
