Adding blocking relationship to BZ 2127507 (the Change tracker)

I see the regex support (and PCRE usage) can be disabled, but I think it would be better to keep it running.

I made some changes in the code and proposed them upstream [1]. I pushed it to the sources and the package is currently building [2].
