That's right, the `!MINGW` prereq works by happenstance only, and as soon
as I find some time to rebuild PCREv2 with JIT support, it will stop doing
the right thing.

Which might happen very soon.

Quite honestly, I'd rather introduce a prerequisite here that specifically
tests whether the output of a `git grep -P` suggests that it has been fed
incorrect UTF-8, and skip the test case under that circumstance.

Ciao,
