Additional info; when I change the linking order of pcre and poco I got
a different output:

$ g++ regex.cc  -lPocoFoundation -lpcre
$ ./a.out 
Poco 0x01030600 on Linux 4.2.0-35-generic @ x86_64
Poco  match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no
Poco  match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no
PCRE 8.31 2012-07-06
PCRE  match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? yes
PRCE  match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? yes
$ g++ regex.cc  -lpcre -lPocoFoundation 
$ ./a.out 
Poco 0x01030600 on Linux 4.2.0-35-generic @ x86_64
Poco  match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? yes
Poco  match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no
PCRE 8.31 2012-07-06
PCRE  match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? yes
PRCE  match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no

Our system uses heavily Poco's StringTokenizer and Regex classes which
are not working correctly on 14.04 and I'm most interested in a solution
to get it back working on 14.04 :)

I'm not familiar with LD_PRELOAD and the also do not fully understand
replies like 'Yoshiki Kanemoto (yocchiman) wrote on 2015-05-01' so if
anyone could tell we what the best approach here would be I would very
greatfull

Title:
  libPCRE3 8.31 regex matching is not working

Status in pcre3 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in poco package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  It looks like that libPCRE3 8.31 included in Ubuntu 13.10 does not
  handle regex matching alright. This also affects the libPocoFoundation
  RegularExpression classes.

  I attached a proof-of-concept which tests a good and bad heystack
  string to a regex pattern with Poco, Boost and PCRE. I tested it on
  two different machines with the following output:

  Ubuntu 13.10 3.11.0-13-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 23 17:26:33 UTC 2013

  Poco 0x01030600 on Linux 3.11.0-13-generic @ i686
  Poco  match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no --> NOT CORRECT
  Poco  match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no
  Boost match 1234567890 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? yes
  Boost match 123456789 to pattern ^[0-9]{10} matches? no
