problem compiling textutils-2.0.18

[Jeff Dimond]

As far as I could tell 2.0.18 was the latest available on the ftp server.  I
attempted to add variable ptr to the NEXT #define in regex.c and made life
worse!  So, I thought I better stop and let the experts take charge.

Here's the compile errors....
