You were just lucky. I have been on holiday and away from email since
last Saturday until an hour or so ago.

Yes. However, you shouldn't do it the way pcretest does it (peering
inside the block directly). You should use the pcre_fullinfo() function
with the PCRE_INFO_OPTIONS flag, in order to extract the options that
were set with the regex. And yes, it should include the effects of (*CR)
etc. If none were set, as pcretest does, use pcre_config() to find the
default.

I have made a note to include some of this information in the
documentation somewhere. I'll close the bug when I've done that.
