Re: inclusion of regular expression wrapper functions in glib.

["Matthias Clasen" <Matthias Clasen poet de>]

I think the consensus is that we would want Perl regular expressions if 
any,
and the  natural candidate for an implementation to wrap would be PCRE.

There has even been a prototype glib-PCRE wrapper sometime ago.

The main stumbling block is the incompleteness of the UTF-8 support in
PCRE,  which needs to be fixed / worked around.

See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50075
for further discussion and pointers.
