 * it's built with -DPERL_EXT_RE_BUILD -DPERL_EXT_RE_DEBUG -DPERL_EXT.
 * This causes the main functions to be compiled under new names and with
 * debugging support added, which makes "use re 'debug'" work.

/* Additional note: this code is very heavily munged from Henry's version

 * blame Henry for some of the lack of readability.
 */

/* The names of the functions have been changed from regcomp and

 *   sv:     the SV being matched: only used for utf8 flag; the string
 *           itself is accessed via the pointers below. Note that on
 *           something like an overloaded SV, SvPOK(sv) may be false
 *           and the string pointers may point to something unrelated to
 *           the SV itself.
 *   strbeg: real beginning of string
 *   strpos: the point in the string at which to begin matching
 *   strend: pointer to the byte following the last char of the string
 *   flags   currently unused; set to 0
 *   data:   currently unused; set to NULL
 *
 * The basic idea of re_intuit_start() is to use some known information
 * about the pattern, namely:
 *
 *   a) the longest known anchored substring (i.e. one that's at a
 *      constant offset from the beginning of the pattern; but not
 *      necessarily at a fixed offset from the beginning of the
 *      string);
 *   b) the longest floating substring (i.e. one that's not at a constant
 *      offset from the beginning of the pattern);
 *   c) Whether the pattern is anchored to the string; either
 *      an absolute anchor: /^../, or anchored to \n: /^.../m,
 *      or anchored to pos(): /\G/;
 *   d) A start class: a real or synthetic character class which
 *      represents which characters are legal at the start of the pattern;
 *
 * to either quickly reject the match, or to find the earliest position
 * within the string at which the pattern might match, thus avoiding
 * running the full NFA engine at those earlier locations, only to
 * eventually fail and retry further along.
 *
 * Returns NULL if the pattern can't match, or returns the address within
 * the string which is the earliest place the match could occur.
 *
 * The longest of the anchored and floating substrings is called 'check'
 * and is checked first. The other is called 'other' and is checked
 * second. The 'other' substring may not be present.  For example,
 *
 *    /(abc|xyz)ABC\d{0,3}DEFG/
 *
 * will have
 *
 *   check substr (float)    = "DEFG", offset 6..9 chars
 *   other substr (anchored) = "ABC",  offset 3..3 chars
 *   stclass = [ax]
 *
 * Be aware that during the course of this function, sometimes 'anchored'
 * refers to a substring being anchored relative to the start of the
 * pattern, and sometimes to the pattern itself being anchored relative to
 * the string. For example:
 *
 *   /\dabc/:   "abc" is anchored to the pattern;
 *   /^\dabc/:  "abc" is anchored to the pattern and the string;
 *   /\d+abc/:  "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string;
 *   /^\d+abc/: "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string,
 *                    but the pattern is anchored to the string.

/* The three macros below are slightly different versions of the same logic.

 * The first is for /a and /aa when the target string is UTF-8.  This can only
 * match ascii, but it must advance based on UTF-8.   The other two handle the
 * non-UTF-8 and the more generic UTF-8 cases.   In all three, we are looking
 * for the boundary (or non-boundary) between a word and non-word character.
 * The utf8 and non-utf8 cases have the same logic, but the details must be
 * different.  Find the "wordness" of the character just prior to this one, and
 * compare it with the wordness of this one.  If they differ, we have a
 * boundary.  At the beginning of the string, pretend that the previous
 * character was a new-line.
 *
 * All these macros uncleanly have side-effects with each other and outside
 * variables.  So far it's been too much trouble to clean-up
 *
 * TEST_NON_UTF8 is the macro or function to call to test if its byte input is
 *               a word character or not.
 * IF_SUCCESS    is code to do if it finds that we are at a boundary between
 *               word/non-word
 * IF_FAIL       is code to do if we aren't at a boundary between word/non-word
 *
 * Exactly one of the two IF_FOO parameters is a no-op, depending on whether we
 * are looking for a boundary or for a non-boundary.  If we are looking for a
 * boundary, we want IF_FAIL to be the no-op, and for IF_SUCCESS to go out and
 * see if this tentative match actually works, and if so, to quit the loop
 * here.  And vice-versa if we are looking for a non-boundary.
 *
 * 'tmp' below in the next three macros in the REXEC_FBC_SCAN and
 * REXEC_FBC_SCAN loops is a loop invariant, a bool giving the return of
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s-1).  To see this, note that that's what it is defined to be
 * at entry to the loop, and to get to the IF_FAIL branch, tmp must equal
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s), and in the opposite branch, IF_SUCCESS, tmp is that
 * complement.  But in that branch we complement tmp, meaning that at the
 * bottom of the loop tmp is always going to be equal to TEST_NON_UTF8(s),
 * which means at the top of the loop in the next iteration, it is
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s-1) */

               we encounter a failing transition, we fall back to the current
               states "fail state", and try the current char again, a process
               we repeat until we reach the root state, state 1, or a legal
