Summary: Group Module: Regular expressions failing when use DBText

Initial Comment:
When you configure "group" module to use regular expression checking, you get the error "ERROR:group:load_re: empty or non-string value for <re>(re) column" at openser startup

After checking the module source code, the error seems to be related to the known bug "Missing DB_STRING attribute for dbtext" (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1679023&group_id=139143&atid=743020)

This is a workaround to avoid it until the "dbtext" module bug was solved: edit "re_group.c" file in "group" source code and replace the line:

if (row->values[0].nul || row->values[0].type!=DB_STRING)

by the line:

if (row->values[0].nul)
