'[' is an improper regular expression. Setting the field in question
disables usage of regexec() functions (since the regular expression cannot
be compiled). I will read the documentation again but my first impression
is that the regex library that is installed on your box is buggy (has
anybody got an earlier experience with it?). I know that for example MySQL
comes with own regex library and there must be a reason for it.

What OS version do you use (uname -a)? You mentioned solaris 2.6, is this a
most recent version?
