+- update to pcre 7.1
+
+ 1. Applied Bob Rossi and Daniel G's patches to convert the build system to one
+ that is more "standard", making use of automake and other Autotools. There
+ is some re-arrangement of the files and adjustment of comments consequent
+ on this.
+
+ 2. Part of the patch fixed a problem with the pcregrep tests. The test of -r
+ for recursive directory scanning broke on some systems because the files
+ are not scanned in any specific order and on different systems the order
+ was different. A call to "sort" has been inserted into RunGrepTest for the
+ approprate test as a short-term fix. In the longer term there may be an
+ alternative.
+
+ 3. I had an email from Eric Raymond about problems translating some of PCRE's
+ man pages to HTML (despite the fact that I distribute HTML pages, some
+ people do their own conversions for various reasons). The problems
+ concerned the use of low-level troff macros .br and .in. I have therefore
+ removed all such uses from the man pages (some were redundant, some could
+ be replaced by .nf/.fi pairs). The 132html script that I use to generate
+ HTML has been updated to handle .nf/.fi and to complain if it encounters
+ .br or .in.
+
+ 4. Updated comments in configure.ac that get placed in config.h.in and also
+ arranged for config.h to be included in the distribution, with the name
+ config.h.generic, for the benefit of those who have to compile without
+ Autotools (compare pcre.h, which is now distributed as pcre.h.generic).
+
+ 5. Updated the support (such as it is) for Virtual Pascal, thanks to Stefan
+ Weber: (1) pcre_internal.h was missing some function renames; (2) updated
+ makevp.bat for the current PCRE, using the additional files
+ makevp_c.txt, makevp_l.txt, and pcregexp.pas.
+
+ 6. A Windows user reported a minor discrepancy with test 2, which turned out
+ to be caused by a trailing space on an input line that had got lost in his
+ copy. The trailing space was an accident, so I've just removed it.
+
+ 7. Add -Wl,-R... flags in pcre-config.in for *BSD* systems, as I'm told
+ that is needed.
+
+ 8. Mark ucp_table (in ucptable.h) and ucp_gentype (in pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c)
+ as "const" (a) because they are and (b) because it helps the PHP
+ maintainers who have recently made a script to detect big data structures
+ in the php code that should be moved to the .rodata section. I remembered
+ to update Builducptable as well, so it won't revert if ucptable.h is ever
+ re-created.
+
+ 9. Added some extra #ifdef SUPPORT_UTF8 conditionals into pcretest.c,
+ pcre_printint.src, pcre_compile.c, pcre_study.c, and pcre_tables.c, in
+ order to be able to cut out the UTF-8 tables in the latter when UTF-8
+ support is not required. This saves 1.5-2K of code, which is important in
+ some applications.
+
+ Later: more #ifdefs are needed in pcre_ord2utf8.c and pcre_valid_utf8.c
+ so as not to refer to the tables, even though these functions will never be
+ called when UTF-8 support is disabled. Otherwise there are problems with a
+ shared library.
+
+10. Fixed two bugs in the emulated memmove() function in pcre_internal.h:
+
+ (a) It was defining its arguments as char * instead of void *.
+
+ (b) It was assuming that all moves were upwards in memory; this was true
+ a long time ago when I wrote it, but is no longer the case.
+
+ The emulated memove() is provided for those environments that have neither
+ memmove() nor bcopy(). I didn't think anyone used it these days, but that
+ is clearly not the case, as these two bugs were recently reported.
+
+11. The script PrepareRelease is now distributed: it calls 132html, CleanTxt,
+ and Detrail to create the HTML documentation, the .txt form of the man
+ pages, and it removes trailing spaces from listed files. It also creates
+ pcre.h.generic and config.h.generic from pcre.h and config.h. In the latter
+ case, it wraps all the #defines with #ifndefs. This script should be run
+ before "make dist".
+
+12. Fixed two fairly obscure bugs concerned with quantified caseless matching
+ with Unicode property support.
+
+ (a) For a maximizing quantifier, if the two different cases of the
+ character were of different lengths in their UTF-8 codings (there are
+ some cases like this - I found 11), and the matching function had to
+ back up over a mixture of the two cases, it incorrectly assumed they
+ were both the same length.
+
+ (b) When PCRE was configured to use the heap rather than the stack for
+ recursion during matching, it was not correctly preserving the data for
+ the other case of a UTF-8 character when checking ahead for a match
+ while processing a minimizing repeat. If the check also involved
+ matching a wide character, but failed, corruption could cause an
+ erroneous result when trying to check for a repeat of the original
+ character.
+
+13. Some tidying changes to the testing mechanism:
+
+ (a) The RunTest script now detects the internal link size and whether there
+ is UTF-8 and UCP support by running ./pcretest -C instead of relying on
+ values substituted by "configure". (The RunGrepTest script already did
+ this for UTF-8.) The configure.ac script no longer substitutes the
+ relevant variables.
+
+ (b) The debugging options /B and /D in pcretest show the compiled bytecode
+ with length and offset values. This means that the output is different
+ for different internal link sizes. Test 2 is skipped for link sizes
+ other than 2 because of this, bypassing the problem. Unfortunately,
+ there was also a test in test 3 (the locale tests) that used /B and
+ failed for link sizes other than 2. Rather than cut the whole test out,
+ I have added a new /Z option to pcretest that replaces the length and
+ offset values with spaces. This is now used to make test 3 independent
+ of link size. (Test 2 will be tidied up later.)
+
+14. If erroroffset was passed as NULL to pcre_compile, it provoked a
+ segmentation fault instead of returning the appropriate error message.
+
+15. In multiline mode when the newline sequence was set to "any", the pattern
+ ^$ would give a match between the \r and \n of a subject such as "A\r\nB".
+ This doesn't seem right; it now treats the CRLF combination as the line
+ ending, and so does not match in that case. It's only a pattern such as ^$
+ that would hit this one: something like ^ABC$ would have failed after \r
+ and then tried again after \r\n.
+
+16. Changed the comparison command for RunGrepTest from "diff -u" to "diff -ub"
+ in an attempt to make files that differ only in their line terminators
+ compare equal. This works on Linux.
+
+17. Under certain error circumstances pcregrep might try to free random memory
+ as it exited. This is now fixed, thanks to valgrind.
+
+19. In pcretest, if the pattern /(?m)^$/g<any> was matched against the string
+ "abc\r\n\r\n", it found an unwanted second match after the second \r. This
+ was because its rules for how to advance for /g after matching an empty
+ string at the end of a line did not allow for this case. They now check for
+ it specially.
+
+20. pcretest is supposed to handle patterns and data of any length, by
+ extending its buffers when necessary. It was getting this wrong when the
+ buffer for a data line had to be extended.
+
+21. Added PCRE_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF which is like ANY, but matches only CR, LF, or
+ CRLF as a newline sequence.
+
+22. Code for handling Unicode properties in pcre_dfa_exec() wasn't being cut
+ out by #ifdef SUPPORT_UCP. This did no harm, as it could never be used, but
+ I have nevertheless tidied it up.
+
+23. Added some casts to kill warnings from HP-UX ia64 compiler.
+
+24. Added a man page for pcre-config.
