  if ($compiled_re->isDeterministic()) { ... }
  if ($compiled_re->matches($string)) { ... }

$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );
  $bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);

=item new()

$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );

The constructor takes a string containing a regular expression and returns a
compiled regexp object.

=item matches($string)

$bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);

Given a string value, returns a true value if the value is matched by the
compiled regular expression.

=item isDeterministic()

$bool = $compiled_re->isDeterministic();

Returns a true value if the regular expression is deterministic; returns false
otherwise. (See the definition of determinism in the XML spec (L<<<<<< http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#determinism >>>>>>))
