Thanks, and that makes sense, but should we make the sense the
opposite way - set REGEX_ALLOW_ILLSEQ only for glibc (including
Cygwin, I guess)?
This also applies only to two cases ("latin1 + locale" and "latin1 +
locale + invalid needle"). There are other !MINGW tests in
t4210-log-i18n.sh which do not use invalid UTF-8 and work fine on
FreeBSD.
