In the docs
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/functions-matching.html#POSIX-EMBEDDED-OPTIONS-TABLE
it says that Regular Expression bounds {m,n} that m and n can be 0-255. Is
there a way to extend the upper limit. We are trying to be consistent
between Regular Expressionimplementation an the other implementations do not
have this limit.
