As there was the slight chance it could be caused by my grep.c change, I

Ok. It's really unfortunate that PCRE2 has so many bugs we need to work
around :/

Ah, sure! It's no issue with the current code base, as PCRE2_UCP only
gets set in that branch, but there's no need to narrow the workaround to
it as well.

I'll send a v2 in a few!
