Thank you for the report.
A quick look at this suggests that the problem is in pcretest. This is a
test program for the PCRE library, and as such is not written to be
robust against all possible inputs. I will look at this some more in due
course, but as the 8.xx series is now in maintenance-only mode, I think
I will probably decide not to do anything, unless there is a very
trivial fix.
