This version is much the same, but rebuilt on top of 1883a0d3b to use the extended regexp stuff, and it doesn't attempt to tidy up other patterns.
I've been trying to make the objc-method matching line a bit more specific - I think I'm running into a bug (or more likely a misunderstanding) in the matching process.
Every pattern there uses either .*$ or [^;]*$ to match up to the end of a line. But in trying to come up with a whitelist of characters to match up to the end of a line, I couldn't do it : there seems to be an invisible character at the end of the line that I can't match.
That is, a line containing just "FUNCNAME" (terminated by a newline) will be matched by the pattern "^(FUNCNAME.$)" but not "^(FUNCNAME$)".
Why is this?
