 Yes, this is a problem, in fact not for ocaml-pcre itself, but for
 some application using, in especially CDuce (which is important for me
 as I work on it.)
 
 The dependence over pcre with utf8 support was requirement for the
 first version of the port I submit and some people (on ports@, and
 also Thierry Thomas by private mail) suggest using (and creating) a
 slave port pcre-utf8, since the slave port arrives just after that
 discussion, I changed the ocaml-pcre port.
 
 Anyway, instead of cookie-file, we could just test libpcre.so.0 with :
 
    nm ${LOCALBASE}/libpcre.so.0 | grep -i utf8
 
 If utf8 support isn't present, the result is empty.
 
 Is it a safe way (in this case, one can use it's own libpcre) ?
 
    Marwan.
