Your point is very interesting. However, if you believe this issue merits more extended discussion, I would recommend you open up a new RT ticket, perhaps in the [RFC] category (or [RFP] or whatever it's called). I would like to keep the discussion in *this* RT focused on the issues Carl

auto::pcre - Does your platform support pcreyes, 6.7. With this version installed, I could not reproduce the error you reported. See: http://smolder.plusthree.com/app/public_projects/tap_stream/5784/392 So could this be a problem with PCRE 7.7, or how it installs

The config test for pcre try to compile a test program. The pcre.pir dynamically loads the pcre library. So if, for example, you have only a static pcre lib, it will detect it but fails to use. That makes sense. Can we change the config test to link against a dynamic pcre? Patches
