I have been experiencing crashes, or other random failures, while developing an 
application using libowcapi. Backtracing shows that these issues occur during 
ow_regcomp. Ultimately, the cause is the tsearch algorithm being misused for 
performing lazy initialization, resulting in race conditions.

This pull request replaces this algorithm with pthread_once, which was 
specifically designed for this use case. Also included is a small gitignore fix 
and a follow-on patch that may or may not be necessary, but was included for 
POSIX compliance.
