to accomodate a trailing '\n'ewline that I append to it later one. This is
only necessary for the case of one inserted, appended, or changed line, but
it's still necessary.

- adds case-insensitive matching in sed s/// epxressions
- consolodates common regcomp code in grep & sed into bb_regcomp and put in
utility.c
- cleans up a bunch of cruft
There is some common code used by both sed & grep that should be put into
utility.c as per Mat Kraai's suggestions/patch on the mailing list.
Specifically, a common regex_compile() and a regex_subst() function need to be
made.
Howdy,
Bug #1006 reports that
ln -s /tmp/foo .
does not work correctly. In fact, it appears that any instantiation of
ln -s FILE... DIRECTORY
does not work. The following patch adds support for this form, which
then fixes the particular instance noted in the bug report.
In the process, I needed the basename function. This appears in the
string.h provided by glibc, but not uC-libc. So I wrote my own to go in
utility.c, called get_last_path_component. I also modified the basename
utility to use this function.
At some point it might be desirous to use the basename from the library
if it exists, and otherwise compile our own. But I don't know how to do
this.
Matt
