POSIX Pattern Buffers

POSIX Pattern Buffers
---------------------

  To compile or match a given regular expression the POSIX way, you
must supply a pattern buffer exactly the way you do for GNU (*note GNU
Pattern Buffers::.).  POSIX pattern buffers have type `regex_t', which
is equivalent to the GNU pattern buffer type `re_pattern_buffer'.
