> Looks like that the expression ".*(/.+?)/.*?\1/.*?\1/" in regex-urlfilter.txt wasn't compatible with java.util.regex that is actually used in the regex url filter. 
> May be it was missed to change it when the regular expression packages was changed.
> The problem was that until reducing a fetch map output the reducer hangs forever since the outputformat was applying the urlfilter a url that causes the hang.

> I changed the regular expression to ".*(/[^/]+)/[^/]+\1/[^/]+\1/" and now the fetch job works. (thanks to Grant and Chris B. helping to find the new regex)
> However may people can review it and can suggest improvements, since the old regex would match :
> "abcd/foo/bar/foo/bar/foo/" and so will the new one match it also. But the old regex would also match :
> "abcd/foo/bar/xyz/foo/bar/foo/" which the new regex will not match.
