     35 /* Perform totally abstractified sequence matching, of an input
     36    sequence against a pattern sequence.  The pattern sequence may
     37    include '*' elements (matches any number of anything) and '?'
     38    elements (matches exactly one element).  '*' patterns are matched
     39    frugally, meaning that they are "assigned" the minimum amount of
     40    input needed to make the match work.
     41 
     42    This routine is recursive.  The recursion depth is equal to the
     43    number of '*' elements in the pattern.  There is no guard against
     44    excessive recursion.  This function has no global state and so is
     45    thread-safe and re-entrant.  (It needs to be, since m_errormgr will
     46    effectively construct two simultaneous calls to it, once to match
     47    at the frame level, and whilst that is happening, once at the
     48    function/object-name level.)
     49 
     50    When matchAll is True, the entire input sequence must match the
     51    pattern, else the match fails.  When False, it's ok for some tail
     52    of the input sequence to be unused -- so we're only matching a
     53    prefix.
     54 
     55    The pattern array is starts at 'patt' and consists of 'nPatt'
     56    elements each of size 'szbPatt'.  For the initial call, pass a
     57    value of zero to 'ixPatt'.
     58 
     59    Ditto for input/nInput/szbInput/ixInput.
     60 
     61    pIsStar should return True iff the pointed-to pattern element is
     62    conceptually a '*'.
     63 
     64    pIsQuery should return True iff the pointed-to-pattern element is
     65    conceptually a '?'.
     66 
     67    pattEQinp takes a pointer to a pattern element and a pointer to an
     68    input element.  It should return True iff they are considered
     69    equal.  Note that the pattern element is guaranteed to be neither
     70    (conceptually) '*' nor '?', so it must be a literal (in the sense
     71    that all the input sequence elements are literal).
     72 
     73    input might be lazily constructed when pattEQinp is called.
     74    For lazily constructing the input element, the two last arguments
     75    of pattEQinp are the inputCompleter and the index of the input
     76    element to complete.
     77    inputCompleter can be NULL.
