windows buildkit, regex change

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

Hi Howard, list,

the regex you provide in your buildkit is not compatible with Visual 
Studio 8, would you be able to change that? I am pretty positive this 
would also work with Visual Studio 7.1, but cannot check that out here. 
Maybe somebody else can check that?

In regex.c (line 4875), the following old-style function declaration 
should be changed from:
size_t
regerror (errcode, preg, errbuf, errbuf_size)
    int errcode;
    const regex_t *preg;
    char *errbuf;
    size_t errbuf_size;

to:
size_t regerror( int errcode, const regex_t* preg, char* errbuf, size_t 
errbuf_size)

otherwise you get the following with Visual Studio 8:

c:\buildkit\mapserver-4.8.3\..\regex-0.12\regex.c(4876) : error C2081: 
'preg' :
name in formal parameter list illegal
