It is a bug, and a silly one :-( In my machine, you can get the bug with
the following little chunk:
 a = "abc "
 print(strlen(a), strfind(a, "0円", strlen(a)-2, 1))
To fix it, you have to change one single line in lstrlib.c:
 408c408
 < const char *s2 = memfind(s+init, l1, p, l2);
 ---
 > const char *s2 = memfind(s+init, l1-init, p, l2);
(In words, when you start the search with an offset, you must subtract the
offset from the total length of the subject.)
It will be fixed in next version.
