Thanks. :) In a previous message you said that I'm missing "headers" for pcre. This is the default state of Mac OSX with respect to pcre. If you install Xcode and the CommandLine tools, and don't do anything special, you are in the situation I am in. In other words, no MacOSX user will have pcre.h, unless they specifically do something about that. For that reason, I hope this patch makes it into a release soon. Otherwise, MacOSX users who did not go through an additional step to install something (pcre) that is not an advertised dependency, and who want to build wget 1.16.1, will find that it fails, and they won't know why. Cheers, Charles
