Count to what?  That above is a bug in pcre itself and 

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=168516

is a corresponding bugzilla entry for Legacy packages.

You were talking about the same bug showing up, unfortunately, in a
different context.  What David Eisenstein posted (thanks!) gives a
lot of relevant cross-referrences.  All that info should show up
eventually in a Legacy bugzilla report.
