When compile_regex() calls regex_prepare_data() and this function fails
in the following condition:
*regex = regex_data_create();
if (!(*regex))
return -1;
... error_data has been zero-ed and compile_regex() calls:
regex_format_error(&error_data,
regex_error_format_buffer,
sizeof(regex_error_format_buffer));
This leads to a call to strlen(error_data->error_buffer), where
error_data->error_buffer is NULL.
Avoid this by checking that error_data->error_buffer is not NULL before
calling strlen().
This issue has been found using clang's static analyzer:
