Getting quote regular expressions from ignore_quotes via S-Lang?

How does one get the regular expression(s) used with ignore_quotes in an 
S-Lang slrn macro?

I can't use get_variable_value() because that function only works with 
slrn variables that are set with "set".

I'd like to read these strings for a macro I'm writing where I'd like to 
avoid giving the regular expressions more than once -- once with 
ignore_quotes and another time for the macro to use.

Thanks.
