Mark -- thanks again for doing all this.

I don't foresee myself doing any active development on gnu.regexp in the 
near future, so I'd prefer to slave to your changes.  The development 
has been relatively quiet in terms of patches coming in, etc., for the 
last couple of years.  So maybe if you and Dalibor get to a good release 
point for Classpath, I can sync up with your sources at that point and 
do a release on savannah.
