Description:
------------
This isn't exactly a "website bug", but I didn't see a suitable category.
I built PHP 438 with an external PCRElib - after a build, a make install fails with:

Installing PHP CLI binary: /usr/bin/
Installing PHP CLI man page: /usr/share/man/man1/
Installing shared extensions:
/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/
Installing PEAR environment: /usr/lib/php/

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: preg_match() in
/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/php-4.3.8/pear/PEAR/Config.php on line 624
make[1]: *** [install-pear-installer] Error 255
make: *** [install-pear] Error 2

Work-around: add 'dl("pcre.so");' to the top of ./pear/PEAR.php.
