I think we should regard both the standard and the dfa
matcher as supported. When I left the house this morning
I was running the regressions on the latest version
(with Gunnar's patch now in the CVS) and dfa configured.

The dfa has one defect: it's hard to debug.

So my view is that while we are developing the 3.1 line
we don't need to make the dfa matcher the default. We
should resolve to maintain and test it. 

I could perhaps be convinced otherwise.

On the other hand we might consider making it the
default when the time comes to release 3.2.
