Let me know if you start to work on the regcomp() changes. I may be
able to spend some time on it next week, but this week is starting to
look doubtful. DSL is great - when it works. With all the network
problems we've had in Manitoba yesterday, I had to fall back on dial-up
access.

OK, I'll hold off on these. At least I got the word out, so I don't
have to worry about forgetting them. I guess the less changes that
complicate the rewrite, the better.

Yes, point taken. The -c fix is pretty darn safe now, even if there's
a way of hacking the environment. If the CONFIG_DIR env. variable still
really makes you nervous, I'd suggest using another #ifndef conditional
for it, so that you have to deliberately enable support for it.
