   Various enhancements made by William Schelter when converting
   for use by GCL:
     1) allow case_fold_search:  If this variable is not nil,
     then 'a' and 'A' are considered equivalent.
     2) Various speed ups, useful when searching a long string
     [eg body of a file etc.]
     Timings searching a 47k byte file for patterns

     The following table shows how many times longer it took the original
     implementation, to search for a given pattern.   Comparison is also
     made with the re-search-forward function of gnu emacs.   For example
     in searching for the pattern 'not_there' the search took 20 times
     longer in the original implementation, and about the same time in gnu
     emacs.
					 
     Pattern:                            current original  gnu emacs 
     not_there                              1       20      1
     not_there|really_not                   1       200     30
     not_there|really_not|how is[a-z]       1       115     15
     not_there|really_not|how is[a-z]y      1       30      4
     [a-u]bcdex                             1      194      60
     a.bcde                                 1       10      7.5  
     
     of a character.
     3).  Allow string length to be specified, and string not null
     terminated.  If length specified as zero, string assumed null
     terminated.   If string NOT null terminated, then string area
     must be writable (commonly strings in non writable area are
     already null terminated..).

     To do:  1)Still lots of improvement possible:  eg the pattern
     x[^x]*nice_pattern, should be searched for by doing search
     for nice_pattern, and then backing up.   To do easily requires
     backward search. eg:  "FRONT TAIL" search for TAIL and then
     search back for "FRONT $"
     2) do backward search.

/*
 * The "internal use only" fields in regexp.h are present to pass info from
 * compile to execute that permits the execute phase to run lots faster on
 * simple cases.  They are:
 *
 * regstart	char that must begin a match; '\0' if none obvious
 * reganch	is the match anchored (at beginning-of-line only)?
 * regmust	string (pointer into program) that match must include, or NULL
 * regmlen	length of regmust string
 *
 * Regstart and reganch permit very fast decisions on suitable starting points
 * for a match, cutting down the work a lot.  Regmust permits fast rejection
 * of lines that cannot possibly match.  The regmust tests are costly enough
 * that regcomp() supplies a regmust only if the r.e. contains something
 * potentially expensive (at present, the only such thing detected is * or +
 * at the start of the r.e., which can involve a lot of backup).  Regmlen is
 * supplied because the test in regexec() needs it and regcomp() is
 * computing it anyway.
 */

/*
 * Structure for regexp "program".  This is essentially a linear encoding
 * of a nondeterministic finite-state machine (aka syntax charts or
 * "railroad normal form" in parsing technology).  Each node is an opcode
 * plus a "next" pointer, possibly plus an operand.  "Next" pointers of
 * all nodes except BRANCH implement concatenation; a "next" pointer with
 * a BRANCH on both ends of it is connecting two alternatives.  (Here we
 * have one of the subtle syntax dependencies:  an individual BRANCH (as
 * opposed to a collection of them) is never concatenated with anything
 * because of operator precedence.)  The operand of some types of node is
 * a literal string; for others, it is a node leading into a sub-FSM.  In
 * particular, the operand of a BRANCH node is the first node of the branch.
 * (NB this is *not* a tree structure:  the tail of the branch connects
 * to the thing following the set of BRANCHes.)  The opcodes are:

 * Opcode notes:
 *
 * BRANCH	The set of branches constituting a single choice are hooked
 *		together with their "next" pointers, since precedence prevents
 *		anything being concatenated to any individual branch.  The
 *		"next" pointer of the last BRANCH in a choice points to the
 *		thing following the whole choice.  This is also where the
 *		final "next" pointer of each individual branch points; each
 *		branch starts with the operand node of a BRANCH node.
 *
 * BACK		Normal "next" pointers all implicitly point forward; BACK
 *		exists to make loop structures possible.
 *
 * STAR,PLUS	'?', and complex '*' and '+', are implemented as circular
 *		BRANCH structures using BACK.  Simple cases (one character
 *		per match) are implemented with STAR and PLUS for speed
 *		and to minimize recursive plunges.
 *
 * OPEN,CLOSE	...are numbered at compile time.
 */

/*
 * A node is one char of opcode followed by two chars of "next" pointer.
 * "Next" pointers are stored as two 8-bit pieces, high order first.  The
 * value is a positive offset from the opcode of the node containing it.
 * An operand, if any, simply follows the node.  (Note that much of the
 * code generation knows about this implicit relationship.)
