I agree, but that's difficult because a php application without a warning with
libpcre 8.33 hangs now with this new release. It would have been nicer and
easier to track bugs if php had complained about such bogus expression with
pcre 8.33.
Maybe something like a php version which detects such wrong expression and
behaves like with pcre 8.33, but with a warning in the logs.

Thank you again.
