M-x apropos with regexp fails

[Alex Schroeder]

When using M-x apropos with a regular expression, I get the error 
apropos-score-symbol: Symbol's value as variable is void: apropos-regexp

The following simple patch seems to fix this:

diff -c /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/apropos.el\~

!       (string-match apropos-regexp str)
        (list (match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)))))
