Re: regex maintenance?

[Karl Berry]

    Perhaps if he gave the specific problems he ran into, with the
    actual compiler output.

Indeed.  He was just passing along what someone else sent to him.  I
expect rms himself does not have any more info :(.

    dropped support for the split-buffer code

So Emacs has to have a forked regex forever?  How unfortunate.
But I do recall how much agony there was in the implementation with the
split buffer, so I can't say I'm surprised.

Thanks for all the info.
