Description Chuck Mead 2007-09-24 14:44:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
RHEL4 php is being built with the in-system pcre-regex ala 
--with-pcre-regex=/usr. This breaks preg_match functionality. This appears to
have been happening for a while as the PHP guys keep getting recurring tickets.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Thanks for the report.  Can you give an example of a failing preg_match() call?
 The example used in the referenced upstream bug report seems to work fine with
the RHEL4 php.

Uhm... Bloomberg is not runing our apache and as it happens that is where the
bug lies! Withdrawn... NOT A BUG.
