This bug was uncovered by a change that allowed for matching empty strings. I
have committed a patch that fixes it, namely, this one-character patch:

--- pcregrep.c  (revision 1340)
+++ pcregrep.c  (working copy)
@@ -1835,7 +1835,7 @@
         {
         char *endmatch = ptr + offsets[1];
         t = ptr;
-        while (t < endmatch)
+        while (t <= endmatch)
           {
           t = end_of_line(t, endptr, &endlinelength);
           if (t < endmatch) linenumber++; else break;

Thanks for the report.
