+- update to new version 7.0
+  Changes: As well as a number of bugfixes, there has been a major
+  refactoring of the compiling code, which makes it easier to add new
+  features, including some new optimizations. A QuoteMeta function has been
+  added to the C++ wrapper. There is now a mode in which all Unicode newline
+  sequences are recognized. Support for the Perl 5.10 syntax for features
+  that were previously in PCRE but not in Perl (named groups, possessive
+  quantifiers) has been added.
