libpcre provides a regex library for apps to use. The version you have
will probably not work, as it is .so version 1 and blender wants version
3. So a symlink is not the correct way to go.
You are using the daily dev build so most likely those devs aren't using
Gentoo and do have libpcre.so.3 from somewhere.
How critical is this error anyway? I can't imagine it would stop blender
from working entirely. Do you download a source or a binary daily build?
Some things to try:
- symlink it anyway and see if the regex functions in blender now work
- if blender is a binary download, search it's files for libpcre.so*
Maybe it's there and you just need to tweak LDPATH
