Didn't realize that was dropped... ...if we presume sense and sensibility of the user to install pcre (and apr project eventually assumes the same w.r.t. expat) and we don't see a benefit to shipping the [very small] lua sources, then it's really nothing to assert that apr should never be bundled again. Otherwise, if we have a -deps package, the prereq packages such as pcre must be bundled for consistency. Getting out of the dep-distro business seems like a sensible move.
