For some reason I do not receive all emails from pcre-dev, so I am answering my
own email.
I tried several attempts to disengage the code from the 'Linux only' approach.
Unfortunately, this is unnecessarily too involved and include usage of
non-standard (outside of *nix world) headers such as auxv.h, elf.h and
elf/elf.h. This is done not only in the allocator as I had hoped, but also in
the S390 actual module.
I contend that this is a wrong approach and I formally protest that to the
steering committee. But I guess that nobody would listen to me.
Since I am a one person team with no corporation sponsors, and have a day job,
I had to abandon the effort for now. Is it possible to contact IBM and have
them look at the matter, please.

Good morningI am aware that the JIT under S390 (IBM mainframe) is
experimental. However, I am one of the main interested parties as I maintain
the port for z/OS. Which is currently the only port that successfully run on
S390. I would like to begin testing the JIT version in my port. I won't
release it to the public before Zoltan makes it available to the public, but I
can and would provide valuable information.
The question is to Zoltan and his team.
What options do you think I should use. And what other pieces of information
could you provide so I can fast start my port.
Remember please that the OS that I am using is NEITHER Unix, NOR Linux, NOR any
Unix like OS
