   There appear to have been some major changes in regex.h / regexp.h from
   FreeBSD 1.0 to 1.1, in particular relating to the functions regexec and
   regcomp.  I'm attempting to compile xview3.2; the regexp problem occurs
   while compiling olvwm. I would appreciate any suggestions, or
   information as to the exact nature of the changes from 1.0 to 1.1

Grab the latest xview from:

	freebsd.cdrom.com:~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/ports/xview

This was just fixed a couple of days ago..  (Or you can just grab
clients/olvwm/virtual.c if you want just the change in question).
