FWIW I would not recommend using the same dir for source and build, or
the same source dir previously used for older source. I notice you said
you were building version 8.12 yet your source directory was set to
8.02. Also you said you want to build the dll, so you need to enable
building of shared libraries. I don't think there ever was a source file
called pcredfa.c file. The optional libraries are only used (if found)
in connection with the supplemental programs pcretest.exe and/or
pcregrep.exe. It is normal for the various "missing" libraries and
resources to be reported via cmake, even when they are not needed in a
particular environment. Hope that helps.
