This patch implement the (expecting) last two features in regex. Work
is easier after this ;)
Great. A quick-quick comment: if these are the last two features, why we
can't un-xfail the testcase which we added latety? Also, a grep revealed
a couple more xfails. Can you clarify?
Also, much more generally, I would be curious about the remaining work:
I think essentially it boils down to the vagaries for the other
non-default regex dialects? Is it a lot of work?
Thanks a lot for now, awaiting more comments,
Paolo.
