Fixed.

Rebase error (I reverted the patch to facilitate rebasing, and forgot to
reapply it.) Fixed.

Fixed.

Alright :-)

Do you want me to commit it as a monolithic patch (1 commit), or a patch series
as the work exists on the git branch? Individual commits will make it easier to
find the source of any regressions this possibly introduces (git bisect works
better the more fine-grained commits are.)

Fixed.

Unfortunately PCRE_INFO_FIRSTCHAR already exists as an alias for the
PCRE_INFO_FIRSTBYTE value. So... PCRE_INFO_FIRSTCHAR2 ?
PCRE_INFO_FIRSTCHARACTER ?

ord2utf is an internal function, and as far as I can determine, is never
actually called with an invalid character; so I removed it. This came up in the
discussion with Tom Bishop on the mailing list who also pointed out that the
replacemenet with 0xfffe is a strange choice... The test suite passes with this
change, btw.

Yeah, sorry. Somehow git got the idea that all the pcre32_* files were copied
from pcre_ord2utf8.c when actually they were copied from the corresponding
pcre16_* files. So these really are new files, the 'diff' is just wrong.

Fixed.

I wasn't sure, so I chose this way. Do you want me to #define HAS_EXTRALEN(c)
(0) for the 32-bit case, and remove all occurrences of this change?

I'll check this and add a testcase.

Fixed.

(By "fixed" I mean it's fixed in my git repo.)
