This includes PR#291, and consolidates pattern exceptions into RegexJava.
Full handling with Xerces regexp for "replace" functionality is a lot of work as Xerces has a separate, parallel set of classes; it is only the "x" flag that is missing from Java. JDK regex is likely to be faster. JDK has been the normal setting; Xerces is there for exact spec compliance in REGEX only.
We don't want more Xerces specific dependencies.
