+       * regex.h (regoff_t) [defined _REGEX_LARGE_OFFSETS]:
+       Typedef to long int, not to off_, as POSIX will likely change
+       in that direction.

+       * regex.m4 (gl_REGEX): Don't check for off_t, since the code
+       no longer needs it.  Instead, check that regoff_t is as least
+       as wide as ptrdiff_t.
+
+       Don't define _REGEX_WIDE_OFFSETS unless using the included regex,
+       so that our regex.h stays compatible with the installed regex.
+       This is helpful for installers who configure --without-included-regex.
+       Problem reported by Emanuele Giaquinta.
