I am looking into this a bit.. it might be something to do with libtool
and/or autoreconf.
The relinking in pcretest (from .libs/pcretest to .libs/lt-pcretest)
seems to create the condition for the failure.
(apologies for reporting in this bug, since the original package does
not do autoreconf.. but I hope reporting and helping investigate might
help, since amd64 sees this.)
Case 0) .libs/pcretest (OK)
$ .libs/pcretest -q ./testdata/testinput2 test-output
$ diff ./testdata/testoutput2 test-output
$
Case 1) .libs/*lt-*pcretest (NOT OK)
$ .libs/lt-pcretest -q ./testdata/testinput2 test-output
$ diff ./testdata/testoutput2 test-output
