...ghtweight bindings for PCRE. They work rather like Str in that there is some global state (actually thread-local in this implementation) between the matching and the getting the substring, so you can write code like this: let re = PCRE.compile "(a+)b" ... if PCRE.matches re "ccaaaabb" then ( let whole = PCRE.sub 0 in (* returns "aaaab" *) let first = PCRE.sub 1 in (* returns "aaaa" *) ... I also introduced the switch from Str -> PCRE in virt-builder to show that it simplifies code while allowing you to use the much more powerful PCRE reg...

v2: - Change the OCaml code in the daemon to use PCRE instead of Str. - Call pcre_compile2 so we can capture the error code on failure. - Extend the test suite. - Some other cleanups, but very minor. Rich.
