There are still a number of packages that depend on pcre.  These are
the direct dependencies:

adanaxisgpl
aircrack-ng
ccze
coccinelle
ghc-pcre-light
ghc-regex-pcre
kdelibs
kdelibs3
kf5-kjs
mod_auth_openid
monotone
ocaml-pcre
opensips
pads
powwow
proxysql
python-qutepart
sslh
tinyfugue
trafficserver
vdr-epgfixer
xgrep

What worries me more are the indirect dependencies, though.  For
example, coccinelle depends on ocaml-pcre, and I understand that the
kernel developers use coccinelle.  Plus, kdelibs and kdelibs3 are in
that list.  That seems worrisome as well.
