Confirmed here (HP-UX 10.20), even using the approved "stuff the RE into
a variable" workaround that fixes most =~ problems:
imadev:~$ bash-4.1.7
imadev:~$ re=$'o\001world$' string=$'hello\001world'; [[ $string =~ $re ]] &&
echo match
imadev:~$
It works fine with Ctrl-B for whatever reason:
imadev:~$ re=$'o\002world$' string=$'hello\002world'; [[ $string =~ $re ]] &&
echo match
match
imadev:~$
I get the same results with bash 4.1.9 and with bash 4.2.7.
