           Summary: Incorrect pcre_exec documentation of the length
                    parameter
           Product: PCRE
           Version: N/A
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug
          Priority: high

The documentation for pcre_exec says that the length parameter represents
bytes:
"length in bytes"
while in fact it represents characters.

This led to a nasty bug while using the UTF-16 version of the function.
