I've seen those warnings when compiling numerous open source projects on Mac OS X, no idea what the underlying cause is though.

The reason is that the MacOSX system libraries have regex functions which have the same names as the ones in PCRE. So, we're running into a namespace conflict which is fortunately decided in favor of our own calls. MacOSX has two-level namespace support, where you link explicitly against symbols in a specific dynamic library (I hear Win32 has something similar), but the libtool that we use to build httpd turns this feature off since it wants to be able to link against undefined symbols.

These messages are harmless as far as httpd is concerned.
