Thank you for the patch.  I've applied it in CVS.  That is due
to a bug of `regexp-opt' that has been fixed in Emacs 23:

2008-05-23  Stefan Monnier  <monnier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

	* emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt): Always return
	a properly-grouped regexp.

But I verified your patch is still necessary for running w3m.el
with Emacs 21, 22, and XEmacs.

Regards,
