Comment(by ligne):
turns out i didn't have the PCRE dev stuff installed, so that script was
being skipped entirely.
it should probably be skipped entirely if it was built without PCRE
support. but that's already being tracked by #2024.
the test still fail when configured with {{{--without-libffi --without-
extra-nci-thunks}}}. since (as far as i can tell) PCRE support is reliant
on at least one of (ffi, extra_nci_thunks), i suppose that it should have
a check like the one in t/pmc/nci.t here:
<http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/attachment/ticket/2116/nci-errors.patch>
alternatively, {{{--without-pcre}}} should be forced if neither of those
is available. is there a blessed way of doing that sort of thing?
