Ryan,

I also tried your suggestion of using clang.  I installed the MacPorts port of 
clang-3.4, which compiled my program fine, but when I ran it, it gave 
exceptions on regexes that it shouldn't!  I have a regex std::regex 
phone_("\\PHONE ?"), and I learned that their regular expression engine is very 
much more particular about adhering to the ECMA standard in its parsing of 
regular expressions, but because the standard doesn't explicitly require it, 
they don't support matching of backslashes, even when they are specified using 
hex escape sequences.  This is really a problem!  How can they not support 
matching against a specific character?  Well, that's why I need to go back to 
GCC for now.  I always seem to run into the issues with compilers.  Thanks 
again for your help.

Regards,

Geoff
