Avi also offered to do this; you might want to contact him. This is what I
said to him that I was interested in:
I'd like to compare:
* regex capabilities: is one more capable than the other?
* ease of use: can we drop it into new code easily?
* speed: how about parsing big files?
* compatibility: any way to use it with (say) SmaCC?
* compatibility: are the two packages compatible enough that one could migrate
from one to the other? Would it make sense to make an adapter?

Depends on what you're doing. A good example might be when I'm parsing all
my .changes files to find something.
