At a minimum I think we should support soundex in the core. I'm willing
to move soundex and metaphone into the backend. Does anyone see a

Is it really ready for prime time? For one thing, a quick look shows no
evidence of being multibyte-ready. There's a fair amount of cleanup of
random private coding conventions (META_MALLOC!?) to be done too.
Doug's point is valid: there's some actual work needed here, not just
arguing to shove the code from point A to point B.
Well, META_MALLOC occurs in part of the code that he didn't ask for ...
it was inherited from the perl module code that I adapted to do double
metaphone. And a minimal wrapper suited my purposes at the time just fine.
But the point is well taken nevertheless.
