=========

checking for pcre-config... /usr/bin/pcre-config
checking for libpcrecpp... no
configure: error: Could not find the PCRE C++ library

!!! ERROR: media-video/mkvtoolnix-1.8.1 failed.
============

while i have dev-libs/libpcre correctly installed.
Looking in the config.log, i can read
/usr/include/pcre_stringpiece.h:50:30: error: bits/type_traits.h: No such file or directory

using locate i can see :
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/include/g++-v3/bits/type_traits.h
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/include/g++-v3/bits/cpp_type_traits.h
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.3/include/g++-v4/bits/cpp_type_traits.h

and i'm using gcc 4.0.3

i dont really know how to fix this.. 

Reproducible: Always

note : re-emerging libpcre fixed it. I dont understand why.. but it does.
