add a special rule to Makefile for a compilation of regex.c, or issue
'cc -c regex.c' before hitting 'make'.

+Just fyi -- it passes tests with flying colors under Ultrix 4.2. The
+README.ultrix file applies more than ever. You might want to add
+these paragraphs to it:
+
+ As of Ultrix 4.2 the optimise works for regex.c, but you must give an
+ additional switch to get everything optimised. Using '-Olimit 1500'
+ does the job. Without the switch gawk will compile and run correctly,
+ but you will get complaints about lost optimisations in builtin.c,
+ awk.tab.c and regex.c.
+
+ The configure for ultrix4.1 works just fine for ultrix4.2
