Ah my confusion came from the leftover regex unit page on the wiki
which also has been showing up in chickadee. Thanks to Jim for
fixing this.

As for the commit I think it would be "cleaner" to convert *all*
the dependencies on regex to irregex, as Mario pointed out that the
scripts using tools.scm all also depend on regex.

Mario, have you got time and motivation to do this cleanup?

Thanks for educating me!
