    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Matlab has 3 operators for changing the match pattern dynamically.  None of
them are supported.

Missing Constructs:


(??expr)
(address@hidden)
(address@hidden)


Implementation is probably not trivial; probably requires the callout
mechanism of PCRE or running the pattern multiple times within Octave.
