I have an M in coccinelle/Makefile as part of my attempt to update
ocaml-pcre (and its users ocaml-text, ocaml-net) but it's just a revision
bump so I'm not concerned about conflicts.

No idea if the slightly updated pcre would improve anything but I can try
it if that's of interest. Just have to figure out why ocaml-pcre works fine
if I build it alone but won't under dpb ...
