This is an unexpected happy surprise. It really feels good to see
that "Yuck" line go.

So is this hunk. Removing unnecessary copying is a very good thing.
Please give these three patches a common prefix, e.g.
regex: -G<pattern> feeds a non NUL-terminated string to regexec() and fails
regex: add regexec_buf() that can work on a non NUL-terminated string
regex: use regexec_buf()
or something like that.
Also I agree with Peff that a test with an embedded NUL would be a
good thing.
This round is so close to perfect.
