This bug causes GNU coreutils Bug#22793 "grep -E assertion failure with back references"; see <https://bugs.gnu.org/22793>. I'm adding comments to both bug reports so that the connection between the two bugs is clearer.

Although this bug's current assignee is Paolo Bonzini (the original reporter), I think Paolo is pretty busy doing other stuff. Is someone else available to work on regex bugs? I suspect the fix for this bug will not be trivial.
