We want to get rid of the boost one. I think it is possible to use both in 
ECMAScript mode, and then it would not be any problem to have two 
implementations. Since we have unit tests for the regex stuff I am quite 
relaxed about unwanted differences: If we make sure that for the next 
release all unit tests pass on the main compilers, then we are very safe.
