 What has been suggested in the past is 
 
 (1) synch to GNU Emacs's regexp engine (Stefan Monnier did a _lot_ of
     work on it---he is extremely busy now but might be able to spare a
     clue or two; Jan Vroonhof, also very busy, has looked at this in
     the past)
 (2) implementing something like Python's raw-strings which would allow
     regexps to be written without all those doubled and quadrupled
     backslashes. 
Not that I know too much about the regexp engine or pcre, but how about
adding pcre to this list?  It's at <
URL:http://pcre.sourceforge.net/>
and it seems that at least there shouldn't be any problems with the
license...
