In the end I found very little to change on a first look. The attached patch:

1. Removes mentions of regex.c.

2. Adds documentation of not_eol.

The other questions which I asked are mostly addressed.

re_set_registers is not documented; there's a note about this. I'd be
happy to write some documentation for that. There's also the technique
of re-using a registers data structure by NOT re_compile_fastmap, but
using the fastmap member of the struct directly. Finally, there's the
problem of the non-thread-safety of RE_NO_SUB which Paolo mentioned;
again, I can document that if we're not going to solve it immediately.
