Windows clients don't use Boost any more, as we ripped that out. They use 
PCRE now. But it should work in more or less the same way. The libraries 
must be present, detected and used at compile time (for the client), not 
at run time.

Which exact version of the client are you using? I cannot test the latest 
one, as I'm getting certificate errors for some unknown reason, but I'm 
pretty sure that r538 had working regular expression support build in.

Cheers, Chris.
