Subject: [PATCH] Regular expression replacement with a function
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

With this change, `re:replace/3,4` also accepts a function for the
Replacement argument, for cases when more complex processing is
required to generate a replacement. The given function will be
called with the complete match and a list of subexpression matches
as arguments, and the returned value will be inserted into the result.
