Yep. That is what I was looking at this morning. It is probably too late in this release of our project to make this

you'llhave to recompile. The interesting constant is<br /> DUPMAX (defined in regguts.h as per POSIX), but note that
there's<br/> arithmetic in repeat() with those values. I wouldn't recommend doing<br /> any of this unless you have
timeto figure out whether the algorithms<br /> are efficient for larger values though.<br /><font color="#888888"><br
