[issue694374] Recursive regular expressions

[Matthew Barnett]

Matthew Barnett <python at mrabarnett.plus.com> added the comment:

There are 2 reasons:

1. I've been told that my current patches contain too many differences
from the current implementation, so basically I have to go back to the
start and introduce any changes a little at a time, without knowing
whether any particular change will be accepted.

2. I think that recursive regular expressions are starting to stray into
the realm of pyparsing and so forth.

So I might not have the time (and I don't think I have the inclination!)
to implement them.
