Add a POSIX regular expression binding as Text/Regex/Posix.  POSIX
regexps are provided virtually everywhere (except Windows, but there's
always pcre), and this means we won't have to ship the a copy of
GNU regex.c, which is GPL'ed.

Compared to hslibs/text/Regex.lhs, this one is much shorter (150 lines
vs. 350), more portable (uses the FFI libs and hsc2hs vs. casm), and
easier to use (it returns the right number of subexpressions from the
regex, rather than 32 all the time).

Text.Regex is a re-implementation of the old
hslibs/text/RegexString.lhs, written to use Text.Regex.Posix.  The
syntax of regexps is probably not identical, but it's certainly
similar enough that the URI library works unchanged with the new
implementation.

    Control.Monad.ST respectively.
  - GHC.Tup moved to Data.Tuple, the code in here is mostly portable
    (and the interface better be).

First cut of the Haskell Core Libraries
=======================================

NOTE: it's not meant to be a working snapshot.  The code is just here
to look at and so the NHC/Hugs guys can start playing around with it.

There is no build system.  For GHC, the libraries tree is intended to
be grafted onto an existing fptools/ tree, and the Makefile in
libraries/core is a quick hack for that setup.  This won't work at the
moment without the other changes needed in fptools/ghc, which I
haven't committed because they'll cause breakage.  However, with the
changes required these sources build a working Prelude and libraries.

The layout mostly follows the one we agreed on, with one or two minor
changes; in particular the Data/Array layout probably isn't final
(there are several choices here).

The document is in libraries/core/doc as promised.

The cbits stuff is just a copy of ghc/lib/std/cbits and has
GHC-specific stuff in it.  We should really separate the
compiler-specific C support from any compiler-independent C support
there might be.

Don't pay too much attention to the portability or stability status
indicated in the header of each source file at the moment - I haven't
gone through to make sure they're all consistent and make sense.

I'm using non-literate source outside of GHC/.  Hope that's ok with
everyone.

We need to discuss how the build system is going to work...
