Ha! I've just posted an agreement with you to do it separately. :-) I
was previously thinking that we could build them both together.

I don't think there are any issues. For example, in pcre_compile.c you
have something like:

#ifndef USDATA
#define USDATA unsigned char
#endif

Then have a separate source file called pcre16_compile.c that contains

#define USDATA unsigned pcre_int16
#include "pcre_compile.c"

All the build system would have to do would be to compile a few more
files.

Philip
