Actually, we need Berkeley-licensed or public domain code so we still
retain control of the licensing of cygwin.dll (we need to be able to
issue it under a commercial license as well as the GPL).

I expect I will replace the regex and glob code with equivalent pieces
from NetBSD (probably).  This will happen fairly soon.
