> * RegexFlag.__and__ and __new__ is called very often.

Yeah, when the re module was modified to use enums for flags,
re.compile() became slower:

It would be nice if internally we could use integers again to reduce
this overhead, without loosing the nice representation:

>>> re.I
<RegexFlag.IGNORECASE: 2>
