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.
