I thought that we should upgrade to glibc regex in 2.6 branch.
We should release other fixes in 2.5 branch before.

I think we should support them; the configure option
--with-included-regex (misnamed, but already established) should be
there.  I agree that (in 2.6 branch) the default should be to use
the distributed regex, as we'll always have some fixes to regex.c
which are ahead of glibc.
