 I now have an idea on how to debug the problem.  The "not ok 4" indicates
 that the parrot pcre library match function called the pcre library
 pcre_exec function which returned a negative value.  The negative value is
 likely to be an error code which we might be able to decipher.  The
 pcre.t.dbg_patch file alters the the test to print out the return code
 when it fails.

 Mr. Perrad, please apply the pcre.t.dbg_patch patch on your system, run
 "prove -v t\library\pcre.t" and post the output.

 Thanks,
 Ron
