Hello Gerhard,

Interesting. Glib should use the internal pcre by default. As far as I
know, pcre is required by Glib and it will use the internal pcre or system
installed pcre. It is a recommended dep as the system built pcre could be
newer than the included pcre tree with Glib source and so
--with-pcre=system is available.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
