    Try not to end busses with a number.

    If you really like the name you have, then rename it as follows:

    regsig3_bit

    I have seen many tools get hung up this, as the expansion can make other similar names colide.

    I think the parentheses are wrong too, as they should be square brackets. (I understand the urge to end signals with a number, so maybe add an underscore after it, like regsis3_[33:0], and that should hopefully work.)
