Creating /usr/lib64/libpcre.so.0 as a symlink to /lib64/libpcre.so.0 allows the tests and installation to complete successfully.
Which version of libpcre is that?
That's dev-libs/libpcre-8.02
8.12 same issue it seems.

Bug 377379 comment 5 has a patch that might help for this issue here as well. Should apply to parrot versions since 2.9.0, as those are the ones containing the commit that is suspected to have introduced this issue.
Should be fixed in newer versions.
