Hi,
I finally figured out why the regex++ shared library was crashing when
throwing an exception.  Somehow the shared library wasn't getting
created correctly by using ld to link it.  When using ld with c++ code,
some additional libraries need to be specified on the command line.  The
easy fix is to simply call g++ to link the files.  g++ then calls ld
with the appropriate commands.
So in this version of the RPM, I now use g++ to create the shared
library, and the regression test program runs flawlessly.
