Hi,

I haven't tried anything with pcre but generally-speaking, these
foo-config need to die in favor of pkg-config.
My linux installation has around 70 of them and they all duplicate the
same functionality, usually badly.

Hopefully, there is pkg-config support for pcre and the best thing to do
is probably to change the bindings to use pkg-config instead of
pcre-config. The arguments are the same so it should be fairly painless
(you only have to call "pkg-config libpcre" instead of "pcre-config").

Hope this helps,
Adrien Nader
