> squeak-vm uses the system pcre library which does not provide the
> prce_info anymore:
>       int pcre_fullinfo(const pcre *code, const pcre_extra *extra,
>            int what, void *where);
> 
>       The  pcre_fullinfo() function returns information about a
> compiled pat-
>       tern. It replaces the pcre_info() function, which was removed
> from  the
>       library at version 8.30, after more than 10 years of obsolescence.
