Re: pregexp: POSIX classes error

Found it (I hope)! The following patch should do it. Apparently, it has
something to do with how Kawa handles keywords (though I'm not sure): -

                           (let ((posix-class

                             (list (if neg? (list ':neg-char posix-class)
                                       posix-class)
                               (+ i 2)))))

                               (+ i 2)))))

Note that the above patch has not been tested fully, though
pregexp-test.scm completes all of the tests. Use at your own risk.

IMHO, Scheme is a more powerful language than Java could ever be. Besides,
I'm still battling to get my first Kawa-Java program running. A way to
define constructors in Kawa would be helpful (*hint* *hint*).
