[MapServer-dev] GNU Regex Replacement?

I was playing around with getting Conda Forge builds of MapServer working, and when I got to Windows, I realized we need the GNU Regex library

https://github.com/conda-forge/mapserver-feedstock/issues/47#issue-2341018003

It is ancient, not released as a standalone library anymore, and causes anything linking against it to also be GPL (which we're doing in the Windows build situation). Maybe it is not worth the trouble to change anything, but if one were to do so, what should be used in its place?
