Thanks for review and adjustment. I re-ran all tests including dfa-match, and they were passwd again in my machine. Next, I will re-run them on Fedora24, as my machine is RHEL 6.8 and GCC 4.4.7 which is too old. However, I do not know why dfa-match test fails on your machine. dfa-match test does not use grep. It directly calls dfa functions through dfa-match-aux executable in order to test codes of dfa which grep does not use. dfa-match-aux does not referer to the ->fast member.
