Cool.

I only wondered whether it wouldn't have been better if `eval' would
have been upgraded - but that wouldn't be able to regexp-quote when I
wanted it, right?

Does it make sense to keep `eval'?  There are so many rx-form types,
would be good if we could make it obsolete (in some sense).

Michael.
