latest in portage : 4.4 (21.08.2003) latest released : 4.5 (11.12.2003) link : ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-4.5.tar.bz2 a simple rename of 4.4 ebuild did it changes : (from NEWS file) Again mainly a bug-fix and tidying release, with only a couple of new features: 1. It's possible now to compile PCRE so that it does not use recursive function calls when matching. Instead it gets memory from the heap. This slows things down, but may be necessary on systems with limited stacks. 2. UTF-8 string checking has been tightened to reject overlong sequences and to check that a starting offset points to the start of a character. Failure of the latter returns a new error code: PCRE_ERROR_BADUTF8_OFFSET. 3. PCRE can now be compiled for systems that use EBCDIC code. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
