I think there is something funny going on with latest version of file.

$ cat file-error.py
def s (h):

$ file file-error.py
file-error.py: ERROR: line 66: regex error 10, (invalid repetition count(s))
$ file --version
file-5.18
magic file from /usr/share/misc/magic
$ which file
/usr/bin/file
$ cygcheck -f `which file`
file-5.18-1
$ uname -r
1.7.30(0.272/5/3)
$ cygcheck -c file
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
file                 5.18-1         OK

I see it on multiple machines, x86 and x64. One of the installs is
around 2 weeks old fresh install.
