I have edited the file so that (I hope) it is now clear what the defines
should be. In many cases, WHATEVER just needs to be defined; it doesn't
matter what the value is.

Scanning the code, I can't see any obvious reason why this should happen
for testdata/testinput4.

Looks like the same crash, but what time.h has to do with it I don't
know, because there is no use of time in find_fixedlength(). I wonder if
there is some macro defined in your /usr/include/sys/time.h that is
clashing with something in the code? The Gentoo Linux version of the
file doesn't have that many lines. If you can send me a copy of your
time.h I can take a look.
Do you get the same crash if you build PCRE using autotools or CMake?

Yes, indeed. It was a bug (my mistake) in NON-AUTOTOOLS-BUILD. I have
now committed a revised version that makes it clear that you must always
compile pcre_jit_compile.c.
