Falcon: Link failure with pcre symbols

Reported by: NicosPavlov Owned by: nerdling (Jeremy Lavergne)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc:
Port: falcon

Description

I am getting an error while trying to build falcon, where linkage issues seem to appear, related to pcre symbols (OS X 10.9, Xcode 5.0.2).

Just in case, pcre seems to be properly installed:

port installed pcre
The following ports are currently installed:
  pcre @8.33_0 (active)

I was able to build Falcon just fine. See active_packages_after_build.txt for my list of active packages in case you see something missing.

This is indeed a little bit weird, as the bots also seem to build falcon correctly, so that I seem to be a particular case.

Just for reference, I looked a little bit more into it, and it seems that on Windows and Mac, falcon builds its own internal version of pcre, which does not get internally installed properly in my case. Forcing to use the external library solves the issue.

Also for reference, here is the patch deactivating the use of the internal version on Mac systems.
