The code in re_compile_pattern says:
/* And GNU code determines whether or not to get register information
by passing null for the REGS argument to re_match, etc., not by
setting no_sub, unless RE_NO_SUB is set. */
bufp->no_sub = !!(re_syntax_options & RE_NO_SUB);
It doesn't seem to be conditional on grouping.
