Looking good, a few observations...
RunTest.bat has test3 rem'ed out. No wonder when I run it, only results
with no differences get shown! Test3 would have all those French locale
differences. Built 7.1 with default newline-is-anycrlf. All seems well.
There is no def file in the distribution. That may cause some
consternation for Windows users. Hopefully more Windows users will find
their way to the list since it is mentioned in the README. NEWS says
there was previously only one shared library built for Windows. That's
not true, there were three. It's just that before they were linked
differently and each of them could function independently.
As planned, I used those added commands to get a pcre.dll like the old
one (plus coff).

Sheri
