--- Comment #5 from Kyle Evans <kevans@freebsd.org> ---
\t (and \r and \n) was properly implemented in r355590 and MFC'd to stable/=
12
in r355902.

(In reply to Yuri Pankov from comment #3)

I tend to agree that it's a standards violation based on my re-reading of t=
he
spec, but I would propose that it's an OK violation in the name of reasonab=
le
expectations and not making users' lives harder. \t =3D> t in a bracketed
expression serves little value and doesn't accomplish anything you can't do
otherwise, but being able to [ \t] to capture the subset of [:space:] that
might represent leading indentation you want to normalize.
