Eric is running sysV. I ran into the same problem last night! It took me
a while to dig out the fact that regcmp and regex are functions you can
only access through the libPW.a file, which is usually in /lib. About
halfway down the Makefile there are three lines used when compiling
under sysV.  The line that defines the LIBS variable should be:

	LIBS = -ltermcap -lPW

If you're using V/AT you'll need to modify the PW filename to
include the small or large model size as appropriate. I don't have
V/AT so I'm not sure exactly how that's done. It is discussed
briefly under regcmp(3x).
