I think it’s ok, re_guts is converted when  used 

(struct guts *) re->re_guts;

And there is comments in regex.h


char *re_guts; /* `char *' is more portable than `void *' */

Hi,

About the error:
Result of 'malloc' is converted to a pointer of type 'char', which is incompatible with sizeof operand type 'struct guts'

The patch attached tries to fix this.

Ranier Vilela
