Both the v1 and v2 functions return const unsigned char *. I don't know
where I got the uint8_t from. This makes more sense.

This series looks good to me. Thanks for the fix. Just one caveat:

The point of 6d4b5747f0 was not to only split out those variables we
couldn't get away with re-using. Then I would have later re-used
e.g. pcre1_jit_on & pcre2_jit_on as just pcre_jit_on. We could also do
that now.

I think doing that & this part of the your changes makes things less
readable. The two code branches we compile with ifdefs are mutually
exclusive, so having the variables be unique helps with eyeballing /
reasoning when changing the code.
