Has anybody with experience of WideStrings tried compiling the "new"
Regexpr unit to support them?
I'm in a position where I could very much benefit from using these, but
I think that I'm only seeing patterns match for characters <= #$00ff and
even then am not seeing the match strings returned.
This appears to be an endianness issue: on a little-endian system
(including x86) the Match[] entries only contain the LS byte of a
widechar and on a big-endian system (incluing PPC) they only contain the
MS byte. Practical result is that things look OK on x86 until the match
contains a value > #$00ff.
I'm putting test data together for various CPUs and will raise a bug.
