The same problem occurs in care of any other or at least many other regerrors!

You seem to be using an old version.  On 9.8-beta4 I get

   ]a =. 123
123
   load'regex'

   ('(*ANYCRLF)+';LF) rxrplc 'abc',2#LF,'def'
|quantifier does not follow a repeatable item at offset 10
(*ANYCRLF)+
          ^
: regerror
|   m     13!:8[12

Press ENTER to inspect
   a
123

Thank you very much, Henry Rich, for this hint! Yes, I am still using version 9.7. I'll switch to the latest beta version!

Hm.  You didn't get the 'Press ENTER to inspect' message.  I'm surprised at that from 9.7.  I don't think any 9.8 change would alter the behavior.

What is your JVERSION, and what is your machine?

I suspect it had switched to jregex locale when error occurred. Try switching to your original locale, eg

cocurrent 'base'
