It's a "hack-o-the-week" paper that I wrote back when on a specific RL parse
of regular expressions, but anyway:


        "Right Left Regular Expression Parsing"


        http://www.qtj.net/~quinn/computer_science/papers/RightLeftREParse.html


Essentially, I found it more graceful to parse regular expressions backwards
than I did to parse them LR, for reasons specific to RE-to-LPM translation.
