NCL 6.2.0, Bug in str_match_ind?

Dear NCL team,

str_match_ind seems to have lost it’s capability to match regular expressions. Try this example:

test = (/"wkWidth","mpCenterLatF“/)
print(str_match_ind(test,"^mp[a-zA-Z]*“))

in NCL version 6.1.2 the result was 1, in version 6.2.0 the result is a missing value (-2147483647).

Is there a maybe a new function which is able to match regular expressions?

Thanks in advance!
Robert
