Good idea! Except the "just" is not justified, I feel. I learned that - t7810 fails with PCRE2 built with --disable-unicode because it uses \p{...} unconditionally, and that's not supported without Unicode support -- no idea how to detect that and skip those tests except by trying and maybe looking for the note that "this version of PCRE2 does not have support for \P, \p, or \X", which somehow feels iffy, - PCRE2 10.35 doesn't build on Ubuntu x64 without adding -mshstk to CFLAGS, and that's the version I wanted to test, - many of the Unicode related tests require Islandic language support, and "sudo apt-get -y install `check-language-support -l is`" installs it, - the condition for our workaround for bug 2642 is reversed, - with that fixed I can't trigger the endless loop. So perhaps that's the only fix we need here -- or perhaps I got confused by the multitude of options. --- >8 --- Subject: [PATCH] grep: fix triggering PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE workaround PCRE2 bug 2642 was fixed in version 10.36. Our 95ca1f987e (grep/pcre2: better support invalid UTF-8 haystacks, 2021-01-24) worked around it on older versions by setting the flag PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE. 797c359978 (grep/pcre2: use compile-time PCREv2 version test, 2021-02-18) switched it around to set the flag on 10.36 and higher instead, while it claimed to use "the same test done at compile-time". Switch the condition back to apply the workaround on PCRE2 versions _before_ 10.36.
