I am not sure what the non-capturing variant of the grouping operator
is. Is that the '?:' ? I have never seen that used in a
scan-assembler anywhere else. But this patch does seem to work for me:
-/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-times "byte.*?0x3.*? DW_AT_inline" 3 } } */
+/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-times "(?:byte|data1)\[^\n\]*0x3\[^\n\]* DW_AT_inline" 3 } } */
I'll let it run tonight on my other platforms to make sure it works on
more then IA64 HP-UX before submitting it.
