Right.  It is a simple pattern matching tool which is called by
gpg-agent to evaluate the quality of passphrases.  The goal was to have
a way to match passphrases against number plates of cars.  I don't think
that this is a useful thing to do, but a client asked for it because
their security policy required it.
