The vger.kernel.org lists have various spam detectors, and I suspect a 
combination of your email address and the signature you use just triggers 
that system to believe that you are trying to sell us house payment plans 
or something..

So I would suggest removing your signature in particular, that points to a 
web-site that is associated with an industry that has over-used the email 
medium for selling their services...

I do not know if stratus has regex libraries anywhere, but googling for 
"VOS Stratus regex" seems to be saying that this isn't the first time that 
platform has had problems compiling various programs.

I suspect you'd just have to compile one of the regex libraries that are 
out there as source. I think Henry Spencer's libraries are likely the 
canonical ones, but there's a "GNU regex" too, and that's probably the 
basis for the ones that are used in glibc. Dunno.

Google for either of those, you'll find them. It's not new code, but I 
doubt it needs to be ;)
