Are we talking about its inclusion or whether it is stable in R12B?
Here
is my Debian Lenny system with stock erlang (R12B-3):
--
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.6.3 [source] [64-bit] [smp:4]
[async-threads:0] [kernel-poll:false]
Eshell V5.6.3 (abort with ^G)
1> Foo = "Hello World! 122.42".
"Hello World! 122.42"
2> re:compile("[0-9].[0-9]").
{ok,{re_pattern,0,0,
<<69,82,67,80,122,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,
...>>}}
3>

In the readme[1] for the version I'm running, OTP-7181 indicates it
is
introduced (experimentally at least?) in that version.

Wow, I didn't realize re.erl was only really available in R13B. I
figured for new code I ought to not be using the regexp module,
but this
gives me pause.

Switching from regexp to re mean we can't support Erlang R12, but
I'm
not sure if we do right now anyway.

Jan Lehnardt updated COUCHDB-245:
---------------------------------
Priority: Blocker (was: Minor)
Couch uses the erlang stdlib module regexp, which is deprecated
and set to be removed. It should use the module re instead.

Key: COUCHDB-245
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-245
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Infrastructure
Affects Versions: 0.7.2, 0.8, 0.8.1, 0.9
Environment: regexp is set to be removed from stdlib when
R15 is released.
Reporter: alisdair sullivan
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 0.10
Attachments: couch_mochi_re_patch, couch_re_patch,
couch_re_patch_2
Original Estimate: 2h
Remaining Estimate: 2h
Couch uses the erlang stdlib module regexp, which is deprecated
and set to be removed. It should use the module re instead. re is
not a drop in replacement for regexp, it operates on and returns
binary strings instead of native strings.
Affects files couch_config.erl, couch_config_writer.erl,
couch_httpd.erl, couch_httpd_server.erl, couch_log.erl and
couch_server.erl.
