regex.h is not a plug-in replacemnt for regexp.h -- the headers are
incompatible.  In prarticular regexp.h declares functions 'compile',
'step' and variable 'loc2' while interface exported by 'regex.h'
is quite different.

AFAICS we should rewrite hthits.c to use regex.h on all platforms,
but this slightly more then changing include line.
