Hmm. PCRE is probably wide-spread enough that it could be an option. 

What's PCRE performance like? I'd hate to make "git grep" slower, and it 
would be stupid and confusing to use two different regex libraries..

Maybe somebody could test - afaik, PCRE has a regex-compatible (from a API 
standpoint, not from a regex standpoint!) wrapper thing, and it might be 
interesting to hear if doing "git grep" is slower or faster..

(I realize that the performance thing depends heavily on the patterns and 
the working set they are used on, but I guess _I_ personally only care 
about fairly simple patterns on the kernel ;)
