Hi list,

chicken ships its own copy of libpcre which has multiple vulnerabilities
<http://secunia.com/advisories/27543/>.

Issues such as this one are the reason why local copies of libraries are bad.
Currently there doesn't seem to be an option to build against the system
libraries though.

Please advize,

Marijn
