Built fine on Windows/Msys configured with cmake with the following 
option set, but I did get one warning when building pcretest I can't 
recall seeing with previous versions:
c:/pcre-7.9/pcre-7.9-RC2/pcretest.c:75:1: warning: "fileno" redefined
In file included from c:/pcre-7.9/pcre-7.9-RC2/pcretest.c:44:
c:/MinGW/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/../../../../include/stdio.h:395:1: 
warning: this is the location of the previous definition

I had entered a cmake build type of Release, which apparently adds these 
C and C++ compiler flags: -O3 -DNDEBUG (which don't show up on the 
listing and neither does the build type -- would be nice if it showed 
the build type. I suppose it would have shown up if I had entered any 
special compiler flags of my own.)

Whatever you decide will be fine.
