--- Comment #5 from Pascal MALAISE <malaise@???> ---
I don't face the issue if I install PCRE myself (in /usr/local for example).
Still this "packaging" of the API is important when PCRE is installed as part
of a distrib, otherwise we compile with pcreposix and (may) link with POSIX.
Would it be possible to make this "trick" part of the official PCRE delivery?

Side question: At present, the workaround I have found is to "embed" pcre2posix
sources (.h and .c) in my code. When doing this I have been surprised to see
that pcre2posix source relies on some internal data of PCRE2
(pcre2_real_code_8, pcre2_real_match_data). Is it simply a matter of
optimization? Is there any way to re-implement pcre2posix on top of the public
API of PCRE2? This would make my workaround less nasty.
