--- Comment #9 from Roger Leigh <rleigh at debian dot org> ---
It would be better if <regex> did not exist at all until functional.  If I do
regular autoconf header checks, plus a check to make sure that the needed types
can be instantiated, then these all succeed despite it being broken.  I need to
do additional tests on top of this to actually check if it's truly functional,
and then fall back to boost::regex if not.  No other standard library feature
has (IME) needed such extra checking.

Regards,
Roger
