But the generated functions aren't CTFE-compatible AFAIK. A CTFE regex 
engine would be um... "tricky" to say the least. About 50GB of memory 
tricky (on DMD, LDC has a GC... though, it's still just as slow with 
CTFE). Really, if you need that level of code manipulation, a 
preprocessor is probably a better choice.
