+DESCRIPTION
+</b><br>
+<P>
+This function creates a new match data block, which is used for holding the
+result of a match. The first argument specifies the number of pairs of offsets
+that are required. These form the "output vector" (ovector) within the match
+data block, and are used to identify the matched string and any captured
+substrings. There is always one pair of offsets; if <b>ovecsize</b> is zero, it
+is treated as one.
+</P>
+<P>
+The second argument points to a general context, for custom memory management,
+or is NULL for system memory management. The result of the function is NULL if
+the memory for the block could not be obtained.
