Description:
------------
Hi,

If you try to compile the current RC7 of php 5.4.0 the Linker crash with the following message.

ext/pcre/php_pcre.o: In function `pcre_get_compiled_regex_cache':
php_pcre.c:(.text+0xb8f): undefined reference to `pcre_info'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [sapi/cli/php] Fehler 1

The reason is the new libpcre-8.30 which was today in my update list.

dev-libs/libpcre-8.30-r2

You can find a full build.log posted on http://paste.pocoo.org/show/546652/ .

regards
j0inty

This also affects the 5.3 branch. The problem is the use of the pcre_info function which was deprecated and repalced by pcre_fullinfo 12 years ago. This function was now removed with pcre 8.30.

I only found one real use of it and some exports; I have attached a patch that might work. Note the I have no idea about php internals; so this might be entirely stupid or dangerous.

Also note that you might not be able to compile the apache module as apache itself seems also to be incompatible with pcre 8.30

Greetings,

Pierre
