Log:
* trustdb.c (sanitize_regexp): New.  Protect against dangerous regexps
(malloc bombs) by force-commenting any characters aside from the ones
we explicitly want.  (check_regexp): Use it here before passing the
regexp to regcomp().

+     operator, but GNU regex does.  Commenting removes these operators
