thank you for the testing. Actually the PPC error was done by me, and I also noticed a few days ago (I changed a value to pcre_uint32 from long int, which is 64 bit long). There was an other error in JIT revealed on ARM (signed / unsigned load half issue), and you likely see it on MIPS.

I will check these. To tell you truth I do really hate "dereferencing type-punned pointer" messages.
Other question: You said there are no UTF-16 variants of pcretest etc. Does it>

No, it checks both. pcretest uses the 16 bit library if you pass -16 argument, and the testing environment is aware of that.
