The diff below works around the problem, at least for re_search(), which

Thanks, but Idx is now always a signed type, as of Gnulib commit
f97745b0f632a9ddae3e48cec083dd71099d37c2 dated 2016-02-19. I guess
you're using an older version of Gnulib. Does the current Gnulib
version fix your bug in a different way?
Indeed, the code in current "master" does work as advertised. I thought
we were using current (well, we were, then). Sorry for the noise, and
thanks for the clue. -- Todd
