bin/pax pat_rep.c
Log:
There is a bug in /bin/pax -s option processing. The code assumes that all
pattern matches will occur at offset zero of the source string. The bug causes
the input source string pointer to be incremented by the offset of the end of
the match, instead of it's length. The fix is to only increment the pointer by
the length of the pattern match (eo-so).
Of course, the one example in the man page shows a situation where the match
occurs at offset 0.
