take an optional string key, but if key is not given, the method does
nothing!  In the rewrite (see upcoming check-in), I left things this
way, but here I document that this is the case.

- Changed instructions for Tcl 7.6/Tk 4.2

themselves and returns true if they did.

'verbose' flag ala GvR updated test harness architecture.

Old way:

	verbose = 0
	if __name__ == '__main__':
		verbose = 1

New way:

	from test_support import verbose

Some other small readablility and functionality updates.

[NOTE: testall.py and autotest.py might could go away soon, I've
 played with Guido's new regrtest.py script and it seems to work well.
 I'll wait until Guido gives the word to completely switch over -- and
 change the Makefile too!]

- Where optional arguments were being used, converted to
  PyArg_ParseTuple() style instead of nested PyArg_Parse() style.

- Check for and handle many potential error conditions that were never
  being tested.

- internal reg_* functions renamed to regobj_* (makes it easier to
  figure out which are global regex functions and which are for regex
  objects).

- reg_group (now regobj_group) was quite extensively reworked.  it no
  longer recurses to do its job (by factoring core functionality into
  a separate function that knows about string and integer indexes).

- some minor formatting fixes.

- regex_set_syntax() now invalidates the cache.  Without this change
  (in the example below), the second search would produce different
  output depending on whether the first search were performed or not
  (since performing the first search would cache the compiled object
  with RE_SYNTAX_EMACS, causing the second test to unexpectedly fail).

  regex.search('(a+)|(b+)', 'cdb')
  prev = regex.set_syntax(RE_SYNTAX_AWK)
  regex.search('(a+)|(b+)', 'cdb')

make the most sense for PyMethodDef structures.  [one small fix]

portable output.

2. Reworked error checking in initposix() and initnt().
