Are you basing that on the file command output?  Keep in mind the symbol table 
size is not dependent on the bitwidth of the binaries in the archive but rather 
the size of of the ar archive itself.

 From ar man page:

      -S    When building the archive symbol table, force the  use
            of the 64-bit capable symbol table format. By default,
            the 32-bit format is used  for  all  archives  smaller
            than  4GB,  and  the  larger format is used for larger
            archives that exceed the 32-bit limit.


The compile error doesn't appear related to pcre though.  It looks to be more 
still an openssl related problem.
