regcomp.c: Fix recursive parsing bug

In certain cases, regex compilation will use a substitute input string
when parsing what it thinks is a bracketed character class /[ ... ] /.
The substitute automatically had a ']' appended to it, even if the
original didn't have one, leading to wrong results.

I did not add a test for this, as the next commit causes current tests
to fail if this one isn't done.
