apparently this is because the system is 64-bit, which still seems wrong
because this is a glibc system and should be using the exact same code.
incidentally, why isn't ac_use_included_regex cached?
this is not a vain question because I want to use it to pass the results
of the check from the top-level configure to the module subconfigure.
I cannot use gl_cv_func_re_compile_pattern_working instead because it
can be overriden by with_included_regex.
Thus, unless ac_use_included_regex is cached, I will have to duplicate
the gl_cv_func_re_compile_pattern_working/with_included_regex logic.
Is there any chance that ac_use_included_regex will be renamed to
ac_cv_use_included_regex and cached?
Thanks.
Sam.
