BSD (like OS X) variants of regex.h do not declare REG_NOERROR, add a simple
define for them.

I think a neater solutions is to actually remove the REG_NOERROR.
 From man regexec, GNU 2011-09-27: "regexec() returns zero for a
successful match or REG_NOMATCH for failure.". Opengroup specs
will mention the same. REG_NOERROR is not mentioned at all.

e.g.:

         if (err) {
             regex_report_error(&item->regex, err, "match",
                        item->name);
             break;
         }

should do the job in a portable way (and reads a bit better,
as well). But this is only a cosmetic comment, the patch by
itself should do the job.

Regards,
Jeroen

p.s. Strictly speaking it is dead code actually...

Just realized this is more then cosmetic. Also GNU will not have
REG_NOERROR defined since it is an enum, so it will always
take the #ifndef REG_NOERROR road, which boils down to !! 0.

So this needs a new version instead of hiding how this works.

Jeroe

p.s. Simon, Andreas sorry for spamming, selected the wrong email...
