I cannot reproduce this behaviour on Gentoo Linux, using the pcretest 
program:

  PCRE version 7.9 2009-04-11

  No match

Please try with pcretest on your Windows box. Also, please can you post 
the configuration summary with which you compiled PCRE. You can get this 
from "pcretest -C". Bugs can sometimes be related to which options were 
used at compile time, and mine may be (probably are) different to yours.
