 * Arguments:  string: Pointer to string in which to do the replacement.
 *                     NOTE:  string will get clobbered.
 * Returns:  Pointer to string.

/* digits

 *           the absolute value of n plus 1 (for the minus sign).
 *           If base is not above 1, returns 0.

/* strregtok
 *
 * Breaks a string up into tokens separated by a regex separator.
 * Works just like strtok but you use a regex_t for the separator
 * instead of a string of single character delimiters.
 *
 * Takes:  string:  Pointer to the string to be tokenized.
 *                  NOTE:  This string will get clobbered.
 *         separator:  regex_t of a compiled regex to use
 *                     as the separator.
 *
 * Returns:  Pointer to next token or null if there are no more.
 *           See documentation for strtok.
 *
 * Internal Variables:
 *     _strregtok_previous_end:  Stores end of previous token.
