See regcomp.c; you'll have to recompile.  The interesting constant is
DUPMAX (defined in regguts.h as per POSIX), but note that there's
arithmetic in repeat() with those values.  I wouldn't recommend doing
any of this unless you have time to figure out whether the algorithms
are efficient for larger values though.
