Apologies, I realize it is difficult to talk about code in abstract when not inlined, but I think it will better addressed by "fixing" it as shown in the attached patch.
That patch isn't right, because the relevant code inside libpcre2 uses size_t, not PCRE2_SIZE and that means our hacky workaround should use SIZE_MAX, not PCRE2_SIZE_MAX, so that it's consistent with libpcre2's internals.
Of course this is all academic on all existing platforms, since IDX_MAX is way less than SIZE_MAX.
