Re: [pcre-dev] how to build it with mingw 4.6.1 ?

Thank you very much for response, it indeed turned out to be a stack
issue. I rebuilt it with -Wl,--stack,16777216 and problem went away. I
was just kind of expecting for default tests to work and ./configure to
pick appropriate flags for built in tests.
