 In file libs/regex/src/fileiter.cpp

 In case the opendir is successful but if condition fails in following code
 block then there will be memory leak.

 {{{
 DIR* h = opendir(dat->root);
    dat->d = h;
    if(h != 0)
    {
       if(_fi_FindNextFile(dat, lpFindFileData))
          return dat;
    }
    delete dat;
    return 0;
 }}}

 The attached patch is the fix for this situation.
