regex fix for cygwin



Hi,

I fixed the problem with regex on cygwin.
The reason of the problem is that definition of regexec() in regex.c is
disabled using  #if 0 (why?) , and It looks like the cygwin's implementation
is not
right (compatible?), so all this regex business fails.
I fixed the problem by replacing "#if 0" by #ifdef  __CYGWIN__, this is the
safest approach, it shouldn't break any other platforms.
But the better fix would be to remove those "#if 0" completely, this will
make mc's regex code indpendent of system libary, but this may be risky.
Now mc's find-file works, and viewer doesn't use "nm" for opening all files.
