Description
Following the steps in the readme file (text below), when doing cmake ../ I get: "Failed to determine the source files for the regular expression backend". I did this a month ago without issue. This was done on a Windows 10 PC with the latest versions of cmake and VS as of early June.
```
# Check out the library.
$ git clone https://github.com/google/benchmark.git
# Benchmark requires Google Test as a dependency. Add the source tree as a subdirectory.
$ git clone https://github.com/google/googletest.git benchmark/googletest\
# Go to the library root directory
$ cd benchmark
# Make a build directory to place the build output.
$ mkdir build && cd build
# Generate a Makefile with cmake.
# Use cmake -G to generate a different file type.
$ cmake ../
# Build the library.
# Use make -j to speed up the build process, e.g. make -j8 .
$ make
```
