Re: [pcre-dev] A problem with config.h.generic

Thanks for your input, but I feel that this is far too elaborate for the
few people who build PCRE by means other than ./configure or CMake. I
think I now have a clear idea of what to do:

For all the boolean macros in config.h, make the .generic entry be
#undef. For all the non-boolean macros such as MATCH_LIMIT or NEWLINE,
surround the default setting with an #ifndef condition (as now). This
should make it possible to override anything using -D on the command
line.

I will also work on the comments.
