Don't be depressed; thanks to Gilles and Geoff I solved this problem last
July.
3.1.2 doesn't use the regex code in the C library, but rather it bundles
the GNU regex code in the package, and puts it in htlib/libht.a. This GNU
regex.c code is causing a conflict with BSDI C/C++ library. BSDI already
has a regex.h in /usr/include directory, and regex functions in C library,
To go around this problem do the following:
. Remove references to regex.o from htlib/Makefile.
. Remove, htlib/regex.h.
. Remove references to htlib/regex.h in htfuzzy/Makefile.
Voila;)
