------- Additional Comments from Michael Saboff <msaboff at apple.com>
I checked the performance of the interpreter character size check with JIT
turned off running V8 RegExp test.  It is 3% slower.  As we change to use the
replacement class we can check and tune at that time.

There still may be an export issue with windows that I will rely on the
buildbot catching.
