As I understand it, the issue is not changing what regexp in coldc
does, but how itis implemented, yes?
I personally like coldc 's regexp for the way it allows me to specify
what I want extracted. Its very mud-friendly. How it is implemented
I don't care so much about BUT the same expression should produce the
same reult on all ColdX implementations. How it does it IMO shoudl
be left up to the porter/implementor.
