What was the pattern you were using? I tried matching that string using the
pattern /(.*)/ in pcretest, and it worked fine.

The return from pcre_get_substring was 30 (the number of bytes), and all the 30
bytes were returned. The test I used was
pcretest zz zzz
where zz contained these lines
/(.*)/8
some umlauts \x{e4}\x{f6}\x{fc}\x{df} and more\G1
The output in the zzz file was as expected. It doesn't show well on my screen
because of the top-bit characters. This has exposed a bug in pcretest; it
should be showing those characters as escapes. I will fix that.
I am afraid that I am not convinced that this is a bug.
