The ebuild currently has USE=pcre2. Please drop USE=pcre2 and instead default to pcre2 support as libpcre1 is EOL. Thanks!

Sure, but since pcre2 was only added in https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/releases/tag/v3.0.7, I'd perhaps wait a bit to let upstream some time to catch the bugs associated with it.
