pcre 8.37 with latest patches won't build

  Hi,

yesterday I tried to build the latest 'next', but it failed. It couldn't 
apply 'pcre-8.37-Fix-another-buffer-overflow.patch':

***SNIP***
Aug 18 19:03:54: Building pcre pcre-8.37.tar.gz checksum OK
+ cd /usr/src/lfs
+ make -f pcre LFS_BASEDIR=/usr/src install
            }

          /* In the real compile, search the name table. We check the name
***SNAP***

Deleting this section didn't help. Anyone else or my fault?

Regards
Matthias
  

Hi,

sorry, this is not your fault. I fucked that up.

I was sure that these patches built but clearly I did something wrong.

I reverted the commit so that you can pull and resume your build and
will then upload a new commit after I fixed this.

Thanks for the notice.

Best,
-Michael

No problem...the major work was done by the machine... ;-)
