- actually enabled charset anchors in the engine (still not

  used by the code generator)

- changed max repeat value in engine (to match earlier array fix)

- added experimental "which part matched?" mechanism to sre; see
  http://hem.passagen.se/eff/2000_07_01_bot-archive.htm#416954
  or python-dev for details.
