Thank you, I've realized it after digging in the documentation farther.  It was the g modifier that threw me off, but now the g is actually implemented and seem to work fine.  We will publish the z/OS Rexx interface in conjunction with the next PCRE2 releaseZeev Atlas

You can set the PCRE2_CASELESS and/or PCRE2_EXTENDED options when you
call pcre2_compile(), which have the effects of /i and /x respectively.
(There are many other options as well.) You have to implement /g
yourself, outside the pattern, by calling pcre2_match() repeatedly, as
described in the comments about the "-g" option in the pcre2demo.c
sample program.
