Hi Eli.
I looked into this for a bit and don't see any way to set the locale to
windows 1252 on Linux. If there's a way with Cygwin I can try that.
Otherwise, it looks like a problem with compiling the regular expression.
Start with make_regexp and keep digging down. You may want to try
compiling without optimzatin; I've seen the regex code break optimizers
before.
Thanks,
Arnold
