The problem with regexps is that there are too many border
conditions. You could right 1,000,000 tests, and still miss one :-(
Not if you do it the way I did, fixing the bug with changes
restricted
to the compound statement controlled by the `wordbound:' label.
Ahhh, but my patch moves one `if' to the notwordbound: case, since it
does not make sense in the wordbound: case (and in fact causes the
'known bug').
